Provided are: an alloy member that is excellent in homogeneity of both the alloy composition and microstructure and excellent in shape controllability and includes a high entropy alloy having high mechanical properties and high corrosion resistance, a process for producing the same, and a product including the alloy member. In the present invention, the alloy member having a chemical composition comprising elements of Co, Cr, Fe, Ni, and Ti each in an amount within a range of 5 atomic % or more and 35 atomic % or less and Mo in an amount within a range of more than 0 atomic % and 8 atomic % or less, the reminder consisting of unavoidable impurities, wherein ultrafine grains having an average grain diameter of 100 nm or less are dispersed and precipitated in a parent phase crystal.

A turbocharger shaft includes a connection portion at a connection with a wheel of the turbocharger. The shaft includes a stainless steel cladding at least along one or more grooves of the connection portion to reduce the risk of cold cracking and bending fatigue.

A bi-metal variable geometry turbocharger (VGT) vane includes a structural, airfoil-shaped flag portion, and a functional, cylindrically-shaped shaft portion connected to the flag portion. The flag portion and the shaft portion are formed of a first metal alloy, and the shaft portion further includes a surface area formed of a second metal alloy different from the first metal alloy.

A bonded part includes: a substrate including a polymer matrix material; a metal layer; a layer of adhesive between the substrate and the metal layer; and a layer of smut between the layer of adhesive and the metal layer.

A gas turbine engine includes a propulsor and a fan drive turbine. The fan drive turbine drives the propulsor through a geared architecture. The geared architecture includes a sun gear, a ring gear, and intermediate gears supported on journal support pins. The sun gear engages the intermediate gears and the intermediate gears engages the ring gear. The journal support pins include a titanium body and an outer surface outside of the titanium body that has a surface hardness that is harder than the titanium body. The outer surface is provided by a steel sleeve. Oil supply holes extend from a central bore in the titanium body through the steel sleeve. At least one pin extends through the steel sleeve to secure the steel sleeve to the titanium body.

An austenitic stainless steel alloy and turbocharger kinematic components are provided. An austenitic stainless steel alloy includes, by weight, about 23% to about 27% chromium, about 18% to about 22% nickel, about 0.5% to about 2.0% manganese, about 1.2% to about 1.4% carbon, about 1.6% to about 1.8% silicon, about 0.2% to about 0.4% nitrogen, about 0% to about 0.5% molybdenum, sulfur in an amount of less than about 0.01%, phosphorous in an amount of less than about 0.04%, and a balance of iron, and other inevitable/unavoidable impurities that are present in trace amounts. The turbocharger kinematic components are made at least in part using this stainless steel alloy.

An erosion strip to protect a leading edge surface is provided including an outer layer comprising a wear-resistant material. An elastomer is affixed to an interior surface of the outer layer. An adhesive layer is shaped to adhere the leading edge surface to the elastomer such that the elastomer and adhesive layers are between the outer layer and the leading edge surface. The elastomer is configured to at least partially isolate strain at the outer layer from strain at the adhesive layer and the leading edge surface.

An exhaust gas turbine is provided. The exhaust gas turbine includes a first turbine housing part having insulating material extending along an interior surface and a second turbine housing part having insulating material extending along an interior surface, the second turbine housing part coupled to the first turbine housing part to form a volute directing exhaust gas to a turbine wheel.

A seal for a gas turbine engine includes a full hoop outer ring, a shoe coupled to the full hoop outer ring via an inner beam and an outer beam, and a wave spring in contact with at least one of the inner beam or the outer beam.

A coated article includes a substrate and an MCrAlY coating supported on the substrate. The M includes at least one of nickel, cobalt, and iron, Cr is chromium, Al is aluminum, and Y is yttrium. The composition of the MCrAlY coating varies in an amount of at least one of Cr, Al, and Y by location on the substrate with respect to localized property requirements. In one example, the coated article is an article of a gas turbine engine.
