Alloy 825 / 2.4858
Alloy 825 is a titanium-stabilized, fully austenitic nickel-iron-chromium alloy with additions of copper and molybdenum. Alloy 825 is characterized by:
- Approval for pressure vessels with operating temperatures up to 425 ° C
- good resistance to stress corrosion cracking
- good resistance to oxidizing and non-oxidizing hot acids
- good mechanical properties at both room and elevated temperatures up to 550 ° C
- satisfactory resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion
