Nitronic 50 Properties
Nitronic 50 is a highly versatile austenitic stainless steel alloy, known for outperforming standard stainless grades like 304, 316, and even Alloy 20 in challenging environments. Key material properties include:
- High Corrosion Resistance: Performs exceptionally well in marine environments, chloride exposure, and acidic conditions, similar to the performance of high-nickel alloys.
- Superior Strength: Twice the yield strength of 304 and 316 stainless steel, making it ideal for high-stress applications.
- Non-Magnetic: Retains non-magnetic properties even after severe cold working.
- Toughness and Ductility: Outstanding toughness at cryogenic temperatures while maintaining formability and weldability.
Nitronic 50’s unique combination of attributes makes it a material that performs where others fail, saving time and cost in harsh operational environments.
Applications
Nitronic 50 bars are engineered to meet the stringent demands of multiple industries. Applications include:
- Marine and Shipbuilding: Exceptional corrosion resistance in seawater and long-term durability in saltwater environments.
- Chemical Processing: Handles exposure to acids, alkalis, and other corrosive fluids often found in chemical plants.
- Aerospace and Defense: High strength-to-weight ratio and reliability under temperature extremes for structural and mechanical components.
- Oil and Gas: Operates effectively in highly corrosive downhole and offshore drilling environments.
- Pump and Valve Components: Ideal for wear components in the water treatment and energy industries where corrosion and pressure resistance are critical.
Custom cuts, shapes, and finishes are available to ensure compatibility with your project’s specific needs.
Meeting Industry Specifications
Ram Alloys delivers Nitronic 50 products meeting strict industry specifications, ensuring compliance with even the most demanding operational, safety, and regulatory standards:
- ASTM A276 (Stainless Steel Bars and Shapes)
- ASTM A479 (Stainless Steel Bars for Pressure Vessels and Boilers)
- UNS S20910 material specification for Nitronic 50 alloy
Material certifications and Material Test Reports (MTRs) are provided upon request. We can also meet project-specific requirements like third-party testing or mechanical property checks.
Nitronic 50 Finishes
Ram Alloys offers Nitronic 50 bars in multiple types, forms, and finishes, allowing maximum flexibility:
- Round Bars (machined or rough-turned): Ideal for shafts, fasteners, and structural components.
- Square Bars: Used in precision project builds or components requiring uniform cross-sectional dimensions.
- Flex Bars: Specialty option for applications with specific tolerance or flexibility requirements.
Both cold-finished (for tighter tolerances) and hot-rolled (for increased strength) options are available based on your project demands.
