High-strength heat-resistant cobalt alloy developed through collaboration between industry, academia, and government!
The high-strength heat-resistant cobalt alloy "COBARION-159" is a cobalt-nickel alloy manufactured with the aim of reducing strength degradation and distortion due to heat input during the joining of materials such as aluminum alloys. It is increasingly being adopted as a target for "friction stir welding tools." Accelerated tests conducted using actual equipment by Iwate University have confirmed that it has more than three times the durability of the MP-159 material currently used in the market. Our company, which specializes in small-lot production of special alloys, is working on the development of manufacturing methods for materials suitable for friction stir welding tools, with the cooperation of Tohoku University and Iwate University. 【Features】 ■ Wear resistance ■ Corrosion resistance *For more details, please contact us or download the catalog.

Company information
Aiwa Co., Ltd. Metal Division was established through a collaboration project between the Iwate Prefecture and the Tohoku University Institute of Metal Materials. It serves as the manufacturing base for the cobalt alloy "COBARION," originating from the "Iron Town" of Kamaishi. Utilizing the technical know-how gained from the development and practical application of "COBARION," we engage in the development and manufacturing of various special alloys. From material selection to melting, forging, rolling, and machining, you can rely on Aiwa Metal Division as your one-stop shop for alloy materials. We handle everything from the production of ingots using 30kg and 100kg vacuum melting furnaces to hot plastic processing with a 600-ton hydraulic press and rolling mill, accommodating small-scale prototypes and development that are difficult for major special alloy manufacturers to manage. We also have a track record of joint development of functional metal materials such as special steels, magnetic materials, resistive materials, and spring materials that are hard to obtain in the market, as well as original alloys customized for our customers. We are confident that we can be of assistance as a material developer and supplier.
