Metallurgical characteristics of bonded region and high temperature mechanical properties of heat resistant alloy, Fe-35Ni-26Cr during liquid phase diffusion bonding were investigated employing AM17 insert metal. The insert metal for bonding, AM17 was newly developed Ni-base metal using interpolation method. Bonding of specimens were carried out at 1,403~1,463K for 600s in vacuum. The microconstituents in the bonded interlayer disappeared in the bonding temperature over 1,423K. The microstructures, alloying elements and hardness distribution in the base metal. The tensile strength and elongation of the joints at elevated temperatures were the same level as one of the base metal in the bonding temperature over 1,423K. The creep rupture strength and rupture lives of joints were almost identical to those of base metal.
