High-Temperature Nickel Alloy Tubing – Specifications, Properties & Applications
What is a Seamless Incoloy 800 Tube?
ASeamless Incoloy 800 Tube (UNS N08800) is a high-temperature nickel-iron-chromium alloy tube manufactured from a solid billet through a seamless hot or cold forming process. Because the tube is produced without longitudinal weld seams, it provides superior structural integrity, pressure resistance, and leak-free performance compared with welded tubing.
Incoloy 800 alloy is specifically engineered for applications requiring excellent resistance to oxidation, carburization, and nitriding in elevated-temperature environments.
For high-temperature structural service, two enhanced grades are widely used:
- Incoloy 800H (UNS N08810) – optimized carbon content and grain structure for improved creep rupture strength
- Incoloy 800HT (UNS N08811) – further controlled chemistry and grain size for maximum creep and stress rupture resistance above 600°C (1100°F)
These alloys are widely used in heat exchangers, furnace components, petrochemical processing equipment, and power generation systems.
Key Features of Seamless Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT Tubes
Excellent High-Temperature Corrosion Resistance
The high nickel (Ni) and chromium (Cr) content provides strong resistance to oxidizing and reducing atmospheres, making the alloy suitable for demanding thermal environments.
Outstanding Thermal Stability
Incoloy 800 series alloys maintain mechanical strength and metallurgical stability during prolonged exposure to temperatures up to 1100°C (2012°F), while minimizing sigma phase embrittlement.
High Pressure Capability
Theseamless manufacturing process ensures uniform wall structure, enabling compliance with ASME and ASTM pressure vessel standards, and allowing the tubing to withstand higher internal pressure compared to welded alternatives.
Good Fabrication and Weldability
Seamless Incoloy 800 tubes can be welded using common industrial processes including:
- GTAW (TIG welding)
- GMAW (MIG welding)
They also exhibit good formability and machinability for fabrication of complex components.
