Cobalt alloys are corrosion resistant, wear resistant and also
heat resistant. These properties of cobalt alloys makes it very
useful and common in manufacturing industries which includes
medical, automotive, military etc.
These alloys has a huge application where the oxidation of
metals is a big problem.
High temperature environment needs these kind of alloys, for
example jet aircraft turbines, turbocharger turbines. These alloys
also exhibit good creep resistance and have great resistance to
thermal fatigue.
Most of cobalt based alloys parts formed by investment casting
process this is another reason for quite common in manufacturing
industry.
