Alloy X is a nickel-chromium-iron-molybdenum high-temperature alloy. This datasheet presents the material within the American (ASTM / ASME / UNS) standard system.
A solid-solution-strengthened superalloy of the Ni-Cr-Fe-Mo family, Alloy X possesses an exceptional combination of oxidation resistance, fabricability and high-temperature strength, with creep and stress-rupture properties useful to about 1200 °C. The high nickel content improves resistance to carburisation, nitridation and chlorination; chromium provides oxidation and carburisation resistance; and molybdenum and tungsten enhance high-temperature creep strength. It is exceptionally resistant to stress-corrosion cracking in petrochemical applications and retains good ductility after prolonged exposure at 650, 760 and 870 °C. With excellent forming and welding characteristics, it is supplied in the solution heat-treated condition.
Typical applications include gas-turbine combustion-zone components — transition ducts, combustor cans, spray bars and flame holders — afterburners, tailpipes and cabin heaters, and industrial-furnace rolls, retorts, baffles and muffles.

Confirm against the mill test report. The alloy retains good ductility after long-time exposure at high temperature, supporting its use in gas-turbine and furnace service.
| Environment | Performance | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| High-temperature oxidation (to ~1200 °C) | Excellent | Adherent chromia scale |
| Carburisation | Excellent | Best among Ni / Co alloys |
| Reducing / neutral atmospheres | Excellent | Balanced resistance |
| Hot corrosion / molten salts | Very Good | Low attack in tests |
| Stress-corrosion cracking | Excellent | Petrochemical service |
The balanced chromium, molybdenum and nickel content gives an exceptional combination of resistance to oxidizing, reducing and neutral atmospheres at high temperature, with outstanding carburisation resistance and excellent resistance to stress-corrosion cracking.
A single-phase solid-solution alloy; not hardenable by precipitation. Properties are set by solution annealing.
Solution Anneal Solution anneal sheet and tube at approximately 1175 °C (2150 °F) and rapidly cool (air or water). Bar and forgings are held at about 1177 °C long enough to bring the section to temperature, then rapidly cooled. The alloy is not strengthened by heat treatment; all hot- or cold-worked parts should be annealed and rapidly cooled to restore the best balance of properties.
Excellent weldability; welded by shielded-metal-arc, gas-tungsten-arc and gas-metal-arc processes, and resistance welding, with matching filler. Welding is performed on solution-annealed material.
| Welding Process | Applicability | Filler / Consumable |
|---|---|---|
| GTAW / TIG | Excellent | Matching X filler (ERNiCrMo-2) |
| GMAW / MIG | Good | Matching filler |
| SMAW / stick | Good | Matching electrode (ENiCrMo-2) |
Weld on solution-annealed material with matching filler and clean surfaces.
