A solid-solution-strengthened,
high-temperature corrosion-resistant
alloy that provides
excellent resistance
to
sulfidation and chloride attack
in both reducing and oxidizing
atmospheres with
exceptionally
good resistance to oxidation,
hot corrosion, carburization,
metal dusting, and nitridation.
Afterburner retort for processing hazardous
waste.
Refractory anchors used in waste incinerator
operating between 1300-1700°F (704-927°C)
burning agri-wastes. HR-160® alloy showed the
most resistance in the environment containing
high levels of sulfur and chlorine. Original
material was 309SS.
HR-160® alloy components in petroleum refinery process.
Calciner tube made of HR-160® alloy for use in
processing high sulfur feedstocks at 2000°F
(1093°C). HR-160 alloy was selected after
intensive field rack testing.
Cross-section of HR-160® flue-gas stack
annubar flow monitoring device for waste
incineration and chemical process industries.
Lining (inner cylinder) of exhaust ducting in pulp
and paper recovery boiler made from HR-160®
alloy. Outer shell is carbon steel.
Many waste incineration and chemical process
facilities have used HR-160® thermocouple
protection tubes with outstanding success. Life
extensions greater than 10X compared to Ni-Cr
alloys and stainless steels are common.
HR-160® tube shields are considered the premier
superheater tube shield material for municipal and
industrial waste incineration systems. The use of
HR-160 alloy has resulted in greatly improved life
in municipal waste incinerators where high temperature
corrosion and fly ash erosion are major
considerations.
