Hastelloy X pipe bend UNS N06002 pipe fittings offers excellent forming and welding characteristics
Alloy X pipe bend is equally suitable for use in jet engine tailpipes, afterburner components, turbine blades, nozzle vanes, cabin heaters, and other aircraft parts.
Its good resistance to stress-corrosion cracking and carburization make it suitable for petrochemical processing equipment and all types of forming and welding. Hastelloy X pipe bend is machinable in the rolled and cast form at low cutting speeds and coolant is required. All rolled forms are provided in the solution heat-treated condition. Standard practice heat-treatment is 2150¡ãF followed by rapid cooling. Alloy X¡¯s oxidation resistance is excellent up to 2200¡ã F. Hastelloy X pipe bend has also been found to be exceptionally resistant to stress-corrosion cracking in petrochemical applications. Matrix stiffening provided by the molybdenum content results in high strength in a solid-solution alloy having good fabrication characteristics.
