Product Introduction

BAOHUI STEEL supplies Inconel 925 (UNS N09925), a precipitation-hardenable nickel-iron-chromium alloy with additions of molybdenum, copper, and titanium. This alloy was specifically developed for severe corrosive environments encountered in oil and gas extraction, particularly in sour gas wells containing H₂S and chlorides. Through age-hardening treatment, Inconel 925 achieves an optimal combination of high strength and excellent corrosion resistance.

Heat Treatment

 

The properties of Inconel 925 are developed through a specific two-step heat treatment process:

Solution Annealing

Heated to 1750°F - 1850°F (955°C - 1010°C), followed by a rapid quench (usually water). This process dissolves secondary phases and puts all alloying elements into a solid solution, resulting in a soft, workable condition.

Precipitation Hardening (Aging)

The material is then aged at a lower temperature, typically 1350°F - 1450°F (730°C - 790°C) for 24 hours, followed by air cooling. This step precipitates the gamma prime (γ') phase (Ni₃(Ti, Al)), which drastically increases the strength and hardness.

Comparison to Other Alloys

vs. Inconel 718

Both are precipitation-hardenable nickel alloys. 925 has better resistance to sulfide stress cracking and is often chosen specifically for sour gas service, while 718 has superior high-temperature strength (up to ~1300°F / 700°C).

vs. Incoloy 825

Incoloy 825 is a similar nickel-iron-chromium alloy with excellent corrosion resistance but is not precipitation-hardenable. It is used in the annealed condition and has lower strength than aged 925. 925 is essentially a precipitation-hardenable version of 825.

vs. Duplex & Super Duplex Stainless Steels

While duplex steels offer high strength and good chloride resistance, they are generally not suitable for service above ~300°C and can be susceptible to embrittlement. 925 is chosen for more severe conditions where duplex steels would fail.

Typical Applications

Oil and Gas

Tubing, casing, drill assemblies, valves, completion tools, and high-strength bolts.

Marine Engineering

Ship shafts and high-pressure fasteners for seawater systems.

Chemical Processing

Pumps, valves, and reactor components requiring both extremely high corrosion resistance and strength.
