DP2782 Hastelloy X Powder (Alloy X, UNS N06002)

Hastelloy X Powder Description

Hastelloy X (Alloy X, UNS N06002) is a nickel-chromium-iron-molybdenum alloy that possesses an exceptional combination of oxidation resistance, fabricability and high-temperature strength. It has also been found to be exceptionally resistant to stress-corrosion cracking in petrochemical applications. X alloy exhibits good ductility after prolonged exposure at temperatures of 1200, 1400, 1600°F (650, 760 and 870°C) for 16,000 hours.

Hastelloy X  Powder has excellent forming and welding characteristics. It can be forged and, because of its good ductility, can be cold worked. X alloy can be welded by both manual and automatic methods including shielded metal arc (covered electrodes), gas tungsten arc (TIG) and gas metal arc (MIG). The alloy can also be resistance welded.

Hastelloy X Powder Applications

Hastelloy X Powder has wide use in gas turbine engines for combustion zone components such as transition ducts, combustor cans, spray bars, and flame holders as well as in afterburners, tailpipes, and cabin heaters. It is recommended for use in industrial furnace applications because it has unusual resistance to oxidizing, reducing, and neutral atmospheres. Furnace rolls of this alloy were still in good condition after operating for 8,700 hours at 2150°F (1177°C). HASTELLOY X alloy is also used in the chemical process industry for retorts, muffles, catalyst support grids, furnace baffles, tubing for pyrolysis operations and flash drier components.

Hastelloy X Powder FAQs

Q1: What is Hastelloy X Powder?

Hastelloy X powder is a high-performance, nickel-based alloy powder primarily composed of nickel, chromium, iron, and other elements, including molybdenum and tungsten. It is known for its excellent high-temperature strength, oxidation resistance, and weldability, making it a preferred material for applications in extreme environments, such as in the aerospace, chemical, and power generation industries. Hastelloy X powder is typically used in additive manufacturing (3D printing), powder metallurgy, and coating applications.

Q2: What is the typical particle size distribution of Hastelloy X Powder?

Hastelloy X powder typically has a particle size range from 15 to 100 microns, depending on the application. Finer powders are generally used for additive manufacturing and other high-resolution applications, while coarser powders may be used for powder metallurgy or bulk material applications.
