Alloy Grade UNS: N-12MV – Nickel-Molybdenum Alloy

  • Overview

    N-12MV, also known as N30012, is a nickel-molybdenum alloy specifically engineered for exceptional resistance to hydrochloric acid. This alloy excels in handling hydrochloric acid across all concentrations and temperatures, even up to its boiling point. It's remarkable resistance to this highly corrosive acid makes it a valuable choice for demanding chemical processing applications. Furthermore, N-12MV exhibits excellent strength and ductility at both room and elevated temperatures, making it suitable for high-temperature environments up to 1400 degrees Fahrenheit (760 degrees Celsius) under oxidizing conditions, and even higher in reducing atmospheres. This alloy is also readily machinable and weldable, providing flexibility in fabrication and design.

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.
