It is used in flue gas desulfurization systems because of its excellent resistance to sulfur compounds and chloride ions encounted in most scrubbers.
C-276 alloy has excellent resistance to pitting and to stress-corrosion cracking. It is also one of the few materials that withstands the corrosive effects of wet chlorine gas, hypochlorite, and chlorine dioxide.
INCONEL alloy C-276 is designated as UNS N10276 and Werkstoff Nr. 2.4819. It is listed in NACE MR0175 for oil and gas service.
Hastelloy C-276 also has exceptional resistance to pitting, stress-corrosion cracking and oxidizing atmospheres, as well as excellent resistance to multiple different chemical environments.
The high molybdenum content of Hastelloy?* C276 provides the alloy with its excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion.
Hastelloy C-276 is a nickel-molybdenum-chromium alloy with excellent corrosion resistance in severe environments.
The high nickel and molybdenum contents make the nickel steel alloy especially resistant to pitting and crevice corrosion in reducing environments while chromium conveys resistance to oxidizing media.
Hastelloy X pipe bend is widely used for a variety of chemical processing parts, including retorts, pyrolysis tubing, and muffles due to its exceptional resistance to stress-corrosion cracking.
HASTELLOY X pipe bend is a wrought nickel base alloy with excellent high temperature strength and oxidation resistance. All of the product forms are excellent in terms of forming and welding.
Although HASTELLOY X pipe bend is primarily noted for heat and oxidation resistance it also has good resistance to chloride stress-corrosion cracking and has good resistance to carburization, excellent resistance to reducing or carburizing atmospheres.
Alloy X pipe bend is one of the most widely used nickel base superalloys for gas turbine engine components.
AMS 5754 pipe bend has no yield or tensile strength requirements, but it does require a hardness maximum and stress rupture minimums.
Strong and Oxidation Resistant to 2200 Deg. F (1200 Deg. C) – HASTELLOY X pipe bend is a solid solution strengthened grade has good strength and oxidation resistance up to 2200 Deg. F (1200 Deg. C).
The outstanding oxidation resistance of HASTELLOY X pipe bend is illustrated below. Tests were conducted by exposing samples to dry air at 2000 Deg. F. and to dry air pressurized to 300 psi at 1750 Deg. F.
Two criteria for evaluating oxidation resistance are weight change and depth of corrosion penetration. HASTELLOY X pipe bend excels in both respects due to the formation of a protective, tenacious oxide film.
HASTELLOY X pipe bend also resists carburization and nitriding, two common conditions which often lead to early failure in high-temperature alloys. After 100 hours in petroleum coke, four other materials were completely penetrated by carburization and whereas.
Alloy X pipe bend specimens showed no carburization at all. Of ten materials evaluated in an atmosphere of hydrogen, nitrogen and ammonia at 1100 Deg. F. and 25,00 psi for 64 days, Alloy X had a nitride case less than one-fourth as thick as the closest competitive material without intergranular attack.
HASTELLOY X pipe bend finds use in petrochemical process equipment and gas turbines in the hot combustor zone sections. Also used for structural components in industrial furnace applications because of the excellent oxidation resistance.
HASTELLOY X pipe bend is recommended especially for use in furnace applications because it has unusual resistance to oxidizing, reducing, and neutral atmospheres.
Hastelloy X is a nickel-based superalloy ideal for gas turbine engine, aircraft, industrial furnace, and chemical processing applications.
Furnace rolls made of this alloy were still in good condition after operating for 8700 hours at 2150 Deg. F. Furnace trays, used to support heavy loads, have been exposed to temperatures up to 2300 Deg. F. in an oxidizing atmosphere without bending or warping.
Alloy X pipe bend is known for its excellent high temperature strength withstanding up to 2200¡ãF. The alloy can also be easily fabricated with forming and welding characteristics by both manual and automatic methods.
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.
Hastelloy X pipe bend is corrosion resistant, heat resistant and oxidation resistant, being able to withstand reducing or neutral atmospheres and oxidation.
Alloy X pipe bend offers exceptional performance in furnace rolls or other industrial furnace applications because of the alloy’s strong resistance to oxidizing, reducing and neutral atmospheres.
As the most pipe bending methods are quite cost-efficient, using bent pipes and tubes will have a minimal impact on the overall design budget when using the ideal length and sizing for your application.
Cold bending methods often rely on sheer physical force to help bring the pipe to its final shape while hot bending methods use careful heating to reduce the force required.
Each method has unique benefits and will determine the degree of bending possible and the final shape of the pipe.
Pipe or tube is bent using a combination of dies and other various components working in a rotary action.
This action draws the pipe or tube forward making the desired bend.
