Incoloy 926 Stainless Steel Flange 1.4529 UNS N08926 nickel alloy flange
With its high levels of chromium, molybdenum, and nitrogen, 6 Moly alloys have excellent resistance to a wide range of chemicals and are especially suited for high chloride environments such as brackish water, seawater, pulp mill bleach plants and other high chloride process streams.
Incoloy 926 Stainless Steel Flange replaces traditional austenitic stainless steels (AISI 316 and 317) where their capabilities have reached their performance limits. Therefore, this alloy falls into the category of “super austenitic stainless steels”. It can also represent a cost-effective alternative to high-nickel alloys in certain marine and chemical processing environments. The alloy is especially resistant to non-oxidizing acids such as sulfuric and phosphoric. The high molybdenum content and nitrogen provide resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, while copper enhances resistance to sulfuric acid. One of the outstanding attributes of INCOLOY 926 alloy is its resistance to environments containing chlorides or other halides. This alloy is particularly suitable for handling high chloride environments such as brackish water, seawater, caustic chloride and pulp mill bleaching systems. Applications include chemical and food processing, pulp and paper bleaching plants, marine and offshore platform equipment, salt pan evaporators, air pollution control systems, condensate gas piping, water supply piping and feed water heaters in the power industry.
