Alloy 330 / N08330, 1.4864, 1.4886 – description

H16N36S5 alloy is similar to austenitic stainless steel except for greater high temperature strength. It is designed to operate in high-temperature together with carburizing, nitridizing and cyaniding environments. It performs well under cyclic conditions of heating / cooling and carburizing / oxidizing atmospheres.

Excellent resistance to oxidation and carburization is provided by high nickel and chromium content. The oxidation resistance is further enhanced by the silicon addition.

Steel 1.4864 has:

  • Good heat-resistance up to about 1100°C
  • Excellent carburization, nitridation and oxidation resistance
  • Low sulfidation resistance.
  • Weldable (neither pre- nor post-weld heat treatment is required)
  • Highly resistant to chloride stress corrosion cracking

Applications

This alloy is widely used for:

  • High-treat furnance parts
  • Chemical and petrochemical furnance parts
  • Cracked ammonia components
  • Heat exchangers in chemical processing
  • Perlite systems and equipment
  • Gas turbine components in power generators
