What is elgiloy used for?

What is elgiloy used for?

Elgiloy is used to make springs that are corrosion resistant as well as provide high strength, ductility and good fatigue life. Elgiloy is highly resistant to sulfide stress corrosion cracking and pitting, and can operate at temperatures up to 850°F.

Is Inconel 600 stainless steel?

Inconel 600 is a nickel-chromium alloy designed for use from cryogenic to elevated temperatures in the range of 2000 deg F(1093 deg C). Inconel 600 exhibits cold forming characteristics normally associated with chromium-nickel stainless steels.

What is the difference between Hastelloy and INCONEL?

Inconel® materials belong to a family of nickel/chromium alloys that are non-magnetic and take corrosion resistance to elevated temperatures. The Hastelloy® family of nickel/chromium/molybdenum alloys are ideal for use in highly aggressive chemical environments at elevated temperatures.

Is alloy 600 an INCONEL?

INCONEL® (nickel-chromium-iron) alloy 600 (UNS N06600/W.Nr. 2.4816) is a standard engineering material for applications which require resistance to corrosion and heat. The alloy also has excellent mechanical properties and presents the desirable combination of high strength and good workability.

Is elgiloy magnetic?

Elgiloy® is a non-magnetic Cobalt-Chromium-Nickel-Molybdenum alloy having a unique combination of very high strength while maintaining excellent formability, excellent corrosion resistance, and high fatigue strength.

Is elgiloy stainless steel?

Type 2507 is a super-duplex (austenitic/ferritic) stainless steel designed for applications which require exceptional strength and corrosion resistance surpassing that of 304 and 316 stainless steels. The alloy has excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking as well as pitting, crevice, and erosion corrosion.

Why is Inconel so expensive?

Inconel and Monel are common tradenames in industry. They are two groups of superalloys which have alloys with extreme corrosion resistance. However, both types are highly expensive as well. It is because of their expensive production process.

Can you Weld Inconel 600?

The welding pool of Inconel 600 is comparatively shallow which may result in incomplete penetration. Medium intensity of welding current and rapid welding are recommended. The coefficient of linear thermal expansion of Inconel 600 is high and it is quite susceptible to hot cracking.

Why is Hastelloy so expensive?

The Hastelloy materials are more expensive than monel due to the composition. Although the primary reason for the cost is the raw material consumption, the production methods for hastelloys are also sophisticated and add up to the price.

Is Inconel stronger than steel?

Inconel 625® has a higher tensile strength than grade 304 stainless steel, and does a better job of maintaining that strength at higher operating temperatures. This is because Inconel is stronger than stainless steel at high temperatures, while being more resistant to oxidation and scaling as well.

Which is the best alloy of Inconel 600?

Among Inconel Alloysspecifically the Alloy 600is a nonmagnetic, nickel-based (72%) alloy also containing chromium (14%), iron (6%), and other trace compounds. These super alloy 600 products provide a perfect mesh of corrosion and heat resistance that makes them an ideal solution for a large number of industries.

What are the specifications for Inconel 625 wire alloy?

The AMS 5666 specification can be found in Inconel® 625 wire alloy. Description: The AMS 5667 specification covers a nickel alloy that is both heat and corrosion resistant and takes the form of bars, flash welded rings, forgings, and stock for heading, flash welded rings, and forging.

What are the specifications for the Inconel X750 strip alloy?

The AMS 5598 specification can be found in the Inconel® x750 strip alloy . Description: The AMS 5599 specification covers a nickel alloy that is both heat and corrosion resistant and takes the form of strip, sheet, and plate that is procured in inch/pound units.

What is the AMS 5666 specification for Inconel?

Material Specification: Nickel Alloy, Heat and Corrosion Resistant, Annealed, Extrusions, Rings, Bars, and Forgings, 62Ni – 21.5Cr – 9.0Mo – 3.65 (Cb (Nb) + Ta). The AMS 5666 specification can be found in Inconel® 625 wire alloy.
