Alloy Grade UNS: HT – Resistant to Thermal Shock

  • Overview

    HT is a nickel-based alloy specifically engineered for applications involving extreme temperature fluctuations and carburizing environments. Its high nickel content contributes to its exceptional resistance to thermal shock, allowing it to withstand rapid heating and cooling cycles without cracking or degrading. Furthermore, HT resists carburization, preventing the absorption of carbon and subsequent embrittlement in carbon-rich atmospheres. This alloy maintains excellent strength and corrosion resistance at temperatures up to 2000 degrees Fahrenheit (1090 degrees Celsius). Its ability to withstand thermal shock and resist carburization makes HT a valuable choice for demanding applications in industries where components are exposed to extreme temperature variations and harsh environments.

Non-Ferrous

Non-ferrous alloys are, literally, materials that are not iron-based. While others may provide non-ferrous materials of other materials, the MetalTek family of non-ferrous alloys are copper-based. In general, these materials deliver high strength, and excellent wear and corrosion resistance. They are often found in marine applications and also bushing, bearing, and gear environments.
Stainless Steel Parts

Stainless Steel

Stainless steels owe their ability to resist corrosion primarily to the presence of a passive film on their surface. Chromium is chiefly responsible for formation of the passive film. Iron ceases to rust at approximately 12% chromium content and resistance to oxidizing corrosives increases rapidly with chromium content up to approximately 20%.
Petrochemical Fittings

Specialty Alloys

Specialty Alloys comprise a broad group of materials that deliver properties for more demanding applications, use more exotic or expensive materials, or require special processes to manufacture. Where standard materials may not offer desired performance, specialty alloys (including those that are modified further) may be a sensible selection.
