Incoloy Alloy 945 - 945 X
Common Trade Names: Incoloy 945; Incoloy 945X; Alloy 945; Alloy 945X
Incoloy Alloy 945 - 945 X is designated as UNS N09945 is a high-strength, corrosion-resistant alloy designed for demanding applications in the oil and gas industry. The properties of this age hardenable nickel-iron-chromium alloy are enhanced by its contents of molybdenum, copper, niobium, titanium, and aluminum.
Properties:
- The alloy's nickel content results in resistance to chloride induced stress corrosion cracking
- Nickel with the molybdenum and copper gives this alloy outstanding resistance to general corrosion in reducing media
- The molybdenum aids resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion
- chromium content provides resistance to oxidizing environments
- titanium and aluminum additions cause a strengthening reaction during heat treatment
- is used in various applications requiring a combination of high strength and corrosion resistance
Typical Applications:
- Because of the alloy's resistance to sulfide stress cracking and stress-corrosion cracking in "sour" (H2S containing) crude oil and natural gas, it is used for down-hole and surface gaswell components including tubular products, valves, hangers, landing nipples, tool joints and packers
- fasteners, marine and pump shafting and high-strength piping systems
Product Forms:
- Round Bars, Flat Bars
- tubes
- Wires
