High-temperature Incoloy 800H superheater tubes
Incoloy 800H superheater tubes are a nickel-iron-chromium alloy designed for high-temperature applications due to their exceptional strength, oxidation resistance, and creep resistance. Key properties include the ability to withstand temperatures up to 1100°F (593°C) and above, resistance to carburization and corrosion, and good weldability and thermal fatigue resistance, making them ideal for use in power plants and other harsh industrial environments. The 800HT version incorporates titanium and aluminum for further high-temperature stability and creep strength.
At what temperature does 800 alloy creep?
1100°F
800H alloy exhibits good creep-rupture properties at temperatures above 600°C (1100°F). Due to its titanium and aluminum contents up to 0.7%, it maintains good ductility for extended service at temperatures below 700°C (1290°F). Standard annealed 800 alloy is recommended for use below 600°C (1100°F).
