Abstract
A cast turbine airfoil to which a squealer tip is added. The turbine airfoil is cast slightly undersize. The squealer tip is comprised of an alloy that is different from the cast alloy of the airfoil, the oxidation resistance and strength of the squealer tip alloy being greater than the strength of the turbine airfoil alloy. The cast turbine alloy having the added squealer tip can utilize a material in the squealer tip that is more difficult to cast than the cast alloy material, yet is more suited for severe environmental conditions and temperature extremes.
