First developed about 1930, these alloys offer advantages of higher temperature, longer life, and higher resistivity over the oldest resistance heating alloy 80 nickel, 20 chromium.

A refractory metal, Tungsten has the highest melting point of all metals and the highest tensile strength at extreme temperatures.One of the group of refractory elements, Columbium has high resistance to severely corrosive atmospheres, being comparable to that of Tantalum in many respects.

The Nichrome or Tophet alloys were developed for use as resistor elements at elevated temperatures for such applications as electric furnaces, ovens, and radiant heaters.is similiar to Type 304 but distinguished primarily by the addition of molybdenum which significantly increases it’s corrosion resistance. The above information is believed to be correct but does not purport to be all inclusive and shall be used only as a guide. The alloy is especially resistant to pitting and crevice corrosion and has good resistance to sulphuric, phosphoric, acetic, and nitric acids. It is necessary to use lubricants / oxides (commonly molybdenum disulfide) to draw the wire through diamond dies due to its tendency to gall.

Properly operating chemical fume hood designed for hazardous chemicals and having an average face velocity of at least 100 feet per minute. The alloys provide resistance to reducing and oxidizing corrosive solutions, and to high-temperature deterioration while displaying excellent creep-rupture properties. is an austenitic steel suitable for intermittent heating and cooling to temperatures between 800/1650º F. American Elements shall not be held liable for any damage resulting from handling or from contact with the above product.

The Registry of Toxic Effects of Chemical Substances (RTECS) contains tumorigenic and/or carcinogenic and/or neoplastic data for this substance. Similar to Twilled Filter Cloth, using finer warp wires, heavier shutes, a higher mesh count and specialized wire placement. A “workhouse” grade in the aircraft and gas turbine industries with a good balance of strength, oxidation resistance and fabricability.
