Product Specification

ERNiCrFe-2 Welding Wire – High-Temperature Stability & Corrosion Resistance for Critical Industrial Applications

Description

ERNiCrFe-2 welding wire is a nickel-chromium-iron alloy designed for high-temperature and corrosive environments, offering exceptional resistance to oxidation, creep, and thermal fatigue. With a composition of 45–55% nickel, 15–20% chromium, and 20–30% iron, this AWS A5.14-certified filler metal is optimized for welding nickel-based superalloys like Inconel 600/601 and Incoloy 800/800H. Its balanced addition of molybdenum (2–4%) and niobium (1–3%) enhances carbide stabilization and grain boundary strength, preventing intergranular attack in sulfur-rich or chloride-laden environments up to 900°C (1,652°F) .

The alloy’s low carbon content (≤0.05%) minimizes sensitization risks, while its high tensile strength (≥550 MPa) and elongation (≥30%) ensure durability in cyclic thermal operations such as nuclear reactor coolant systems, petrochemical cracker furnaces, and aerospace turbine components. With a thermal expansion coefficient of 13.5×10⁻⁶/°C and thermal conductivity of 12 W/m·K, ERNiCrFe-2 wire reduces residual stress in dissimilar metal joints, such as nickel alloys to stainless steel or carbon steel, making it ideal for applications requiring long-term structural integrity under extreme conditions .

Q&A

Q1: Can ERNiCrFe-2 wire weld Incoloy 800H to carbon steel without cracking?
A: Yes. Its niobium-stabilized microstructure mitigates carbon migration, enabling crack-free joints between high-nickel alloys and carbon steel .

Q2: What shielding gas is recommended for TIG welding with ERNiCrFe-2?
A: Use argon (≥99.995% purity) with a flow rate of 12–18 L/min. For thicker sections, adding 2–5% helium improves penetration .

Q3: Does this wire comply with NACE MR0175 for sour gas pipelines?
A: Yes. ERNiCrFe-2 meets NACE standards for H₂S-rich environments when welding Inconel 625 or similar alloys .
