Incoloy 800 hollow tubes stacked in a pyramid formation, designed for industrial applications.

INCOLOY 800

Incoloy 800 is an iron-nickel-chromium alloy known for its moderate strength and excellent resistance to oxidation and carburization at high temperatures. It is ideal for high-temperature petrochemical applications, as it doesn’t form the embrittling sigma phase at 1200°F (649°C) and resists chloride stress-corrosion cracking. Incoloy 800H offers improved creep and stress-rupture resistance.

Corrosion Resistance

Oxidation Resistance

  • Incoloy 800 exhibits outstanding resistance to oxidation due to its high chromium content. It forms a stable oxide layer on its surface that protects the material from further oxidation. This makes it suitable for use in environments with high-temperature oxidative conditions.

Sulfur Resistance

  • The alloy also performs well in the presence of sulfur, especially in applications where exposure to sulfurous gases or liquids is common. It resists sulfidation, a form of corrosion that occurs when sulfur reacts with metals at high temperatures.

Stress Corrosion Cracking Resistance

  • Incoloy 800 is resistant to stress corrosion cracking in many environments, particularly in high-temperature aqueous solutions. Its resistance to stress corrosion is enhanced by its nickel content, making it suitable for use in environments with high chloride concentrations.

Acid Resistance

  • Incoloy 800 shows resistance to a range of acidic environments, including those containing nitric acid, phosphoric acid, and acetic acid. The alloy maintains its integrity even when exposed to mildly reducing or oxidizing acid solutions.

Corrosion in High-Temperature Environments

  • Incoloy 800’s resistance to high-temperature corrosion is particularly notable. It performs well in temperatures ranging from 1000°F (537°C) to 1800°F (982°C). The alloy resists both carburization and oxidation in these elevated temperatures, maintaining strength and durability.

Welding and Fabrication

Machinability

  • Incoloy 800 exhibits machinability similar to that of iron-based alloys. However, the material tends to work-harden during machining, so appropriate tools and techniques are required to maintain efficiency.

Welding

  • Incoloy 800 can be welded using common welding techniques. It is recommended to use a matching filler metal to ensure optimal strength and corrosion resistance in the welded joint.

Forming

  • The alloy has good ductility, making it suitable for forming using conventional methods. It is easy to shape and mold into desired configurations without compromising its mechanical properties.

Hot Working

  • Hot working of Incoloy 800 is possible within the temperature range of 871-1232°C (1600-2250°F). This range allows for effective shaping and processing of the material at high temperatures.

Cold Working

  • Cold working of Incoloy 800 can be done with standard tooling. The alloy retains its strength and integrity when processed at room temperature, making it ideal for forming into various shapes and sizes.

Annealing

  • After cold working, Incoloy 800 can be annealed at a temperature of 982°C (1800°F) for 15 minutes, followed by air cooling. This process helps restore the material’s optimal properties, including its corrosion resistance and ductility.
