APPLICATIONS

Industrial Heating & Heat Treatment

Describe furnace atmosphere as carefully as temperature. Fixtures, radiant tubes and retorts have different load, cycling and contamination conditions.

Industrial Heating & Heat Treatment
Industry illustration; not a claim of a completed Hangbo project.

Service conditions to define

  • Continuous/peak metal temperature and cycle frequency
  • Atmosphere, gas composition and contamination
  • Load, support spacing, creep and distortion limits
  • Drawing, weld details and replacement-part geometry

Practical enquiry example

For a tray or basket, send the drawing, charge mass, furnace cycle and atmosphere. State whether the quote covers stock, formed parts or a welded assembly.

Candidates for technical review
GradeReview focus
Inconel 600Review industrial-heating duty against atmosphere and fabrication requirements.
Incoloy 800HReview creep-driven applications with the exact grade, grain and condition.
800H and 800HT must not be interchanged based only on similar nickel and chromium content. Check the complete material requirement.
