Inconel 718 Flange is the best-selling grade in the stainless steel range due to its superior performance and general use in highly corrosive environments. Inconel 718 flanges are used in hardware, petrochemical industry, oil and gas industry, nuclear industry, pulp and paper industry, research and development, large projects and defense and development industries. Flange connections are available for industrial piping. We use flanges to connect pipes with valves, filters and pressure vessels. Depending on the piping layout, environment and machinery, we need to select the appropriate flange type and its constituent elements.
Additionally, Alloy 718 exhibits excellent yield strength, tensile strength, and creep rupture strength at temperatures up to 1300°F (704°C). Its composition contains niobium, and the precipitation hardening reaction is slow, so the material will not harden or crack when annealed or welded.
