The impact of a thermal overaging at 650 degrees C on Alloy 625 high temperature low cycle fatigue (LCF) and tensile properties was investigated. This prior thermal aging in the gamma '' precipitation domain improve both the tensile properties in the 20-750 degrees C temperature range (Tensile resistance and Yield stress) and the LCF lifetime at 650 degrees C. The improvements in monotonic and LCF properties compared to the samples without any prior aging are provided by the gamma '' structural hardening which limits the cyclic ratcheting during LCF tests. In addition, using a combination of strain-controlled LCF experiments, interrupted stress-controlled LCF experiments followed by a tensile tests and microstructure inspections, it is shown that the microstructure of Alloy 625 without any prior aging is unstable during LCF solicitation and that the gamma '' precipitation as well as the gamma ''->delta transformation are occurring during mechanical cycling, affecting the mechanical behavior of the alloy.
