Corrosion resistant AL-6XN alloy suitable for petrochemical applications

Looking for a valve in this exotic alloy? Find it in the following configurations: Ball, Butterfly, Cast, Check, Control, Cryogenic, Custom made, Foot, Forged, Gate, Globe, Needle, Plug, and Safety relief, as well as Strainers.

Alloy Valve Stockist supplies AL-6XN gate, globe, check, ball, butterfly, plug, needle and custom made valves.

As a valve stockist, we stock, supply and distribute valves in exotic materials such as titanium, hastelloy, duplex, super duplex, monel, incoloy, inconel, alloy 20, 254 SMO, 6 Moly, tantalum, zirconium, uranus, 904L both in stock and can also work against short delivery schedules.

Super austinitic alloys are named for their 6% Molybdenum content. They are highly resistant to corrosion and stress cracking and are up to 50% stronger than conventional stainless steels. Enhanced levels of two key elements, chromium and molybdenum, plus the addition of nitrogen give these alloys greatly improved pitting and crevice corrosion resistance in chlorides. Therefore making 6 Moly Alloys well suited for high chloride environments such as brackish water, seawater, pulp mill bleach plants and other high chloride process streams.

INCOLOY® alloy 25-6MO (UNS N08926/W. Nr. 1.4529, formerly UNS N08925) is a super-austenitic stainless steel containing 6% molybdenum and enhanced by an addition of nitrogen. The nickel and chromium contents of this alloy make it resistant to a wide range of corrosive environments. The alloy is especially resistant to non-oxidizing acids such as sulfuric and phosphoric. The high molybdenum content and nitrogen provide resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, while copper enhances resistance to sulfuric acid.

AL-6XN is often used in:
Seawater handling equipment
Pulp mill bleach systems
Chemical processing equipment
Food processing equipment
Desalination equipment
Flue gas desulphurization scrubbers
