Alloy 20 is an austenitic nickel-iron-chromium alloy with outstanding corrosion resistance. Alloy 20 Olets provide strong sulfuric acid resistance. This alloy is also resistant to phosphoric acid, nitric acid, and aqueous salt solutions. Alloy 20 Olets are an excellent choice when chloride stress corrosion cracking is a concern since they resist pitting and crevice corrosion. Because the rate of corrosion can substantially increase in chloride ion-containing environments, caution should be exercised. Alloy 20 Olets may provide cost savings while outperforming typical stainless steels when compared to higher nickel-based alloys. Alloy 20 is a super-austenitic stainless steel that was developed for maximum corrosion resistance to sulfuric acid and other extreme environments where regular austenitic grades are ineffective. Hot-working and cold-working are two traditional ways of producing Alloy 20. It's also vital to determine whether or not the desired corrosion resistance can be achieved in a given environment. Alloy 20 is used in a variety of industries, including chemical processing, petrochemical and refining, marine, pharmaceutical, and food processing. End-use applications include storage tanks, mixing tanks, agitators, pump and valve parts, food processing equipment, fasteners, and fittings.
