NICKEL-IRON

Incoloy 825 / 2.4858 Nickel-Iron Alloy

Alloy 825 is a nickel-iron-chromium corrosion-resistant alloy containing molybdenum, copper and titanium. It is considered for acid handling and demanding process environments. Its wet-corrosion role differs from the creep-led high-temperature use of the similarly named 800H family.

Consider the alloying functions together

Nickel, chromium, molybdenum and copper contribute to different environmental responses, while titanium supports stabilisation against intergranular corrosion with suitable heat treatment. This combination makes 825 relevant to many processes. The acid name alone is insufficient: concentration, temperature, contaminants and the condition of welded surfaces are needed.

825 and 925 are different delivery choices

Alloy 825 does not develop strength by ageing in the same way as 925. A corrosion comparison alone is therefore incomplete for a loaded shaft or valve component. Review mechanical requirements alongside final manufacturing steps; ageing 825 should not be expected to produce the properties of 925.

Annealing and product form

Annealing matters for ductility and stabilisation. ASTM B425 for rod and bar and ASTM B424 for sheet and plate are example product specifications. Include section size, condition, testing and documentation requirements. A long-product specification should not be assumed sufficient for pipe or welded connections; acceptance must match the requested product.

Typical application areas

Acid processes, pollution-control equipment, oil and gas hardware and heat-exchanger components.
