Inconel G-3

Inconel G-3

INCONEL G-3 is a nickel-chromium-iron-molybdenum-copper alloy with excellent corrosion resistance, particularly outstanding in strongly reducing acids (such as sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid) and chloride-containing environments. The alloy maintains good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance at both room temperature and high temperatures, and is widely used in chemical processing, pollution control, marine engineering, acidic oil and gas fields, and nuclear power systems.

Products Features

 
High-Temperature Oxidation Resistance

Outstanding Corrosion Resistance

It exhibits excellent corrosion resistance to strong acids such as sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, nitric acid, and mixed acids. Additionally, it demonstrates good resistance to pitting corrosion, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking in chloride-containing environments, with performance far exceeding that of ordinary stainless steel.

High-Temperature Corrosion Resistance

Good Desensitization Performance

By optimizing the chemical composition, the intergranular corrosion sensitivity has been significantly reduced. It maintains good corrosion resistance even in the welded condition, making it suitable for chemical equipment and piping systems that require welding fabrication.

High Stability

Excellent Machining and Welding Properties

It exhibits excellent cold and hot working properties, allowing it to be formed and welded using conventional processes. It is suitable for manufacturing various forms such as plates, strips, bars, wires, tubes, and forgings, meeting the requirements of complex industrial applications.
