Alloy 20 strips are thin, cold-rolled flat products of an austenitic nickel-iron-chromium alloy with added copper and molybdenum, stabilised by niobium. The copper and molybdenum resist reducing acids, especially sulphuric acid, while chromium adds oxidising resistance. Niobium at a minimum of eight times the carbon content locks up carbon, so welded parts resist intergranular corrosion. UNS N08020 also resists chloride stress corrosion cracking. It serves chemical processing, heat exchangers, and oil and gas duties.
We slit every Alloy 20 coil in-house, from 0.03 mm to 5 mm thick and any width between 3 mm and 2000 mm. Material under 4.76 mm thick and under 610 mm wide is classified as strip; wider widths ship as sheet or coil, and 4.76 mm and above as plate. Material leaves our facility in the stabilised annealed condition to ASME SB-463, with a choice of BA, 2B, Matte, HR pickled, or cold-rolled finishes and slit, deburred, or round edges. A mill test certificate ships with every order.
