Solid solution nickel-chromium-iron alloy with high resistance to oxidation, carburisation and chloride ion stress corrosion cracking at elevated temperature.

Iron-nickel-chromium alloy for high temperature strength with oxidation and carburisation resistance. The 32Ni-21Cr balance resists chloride stress corrosion cracking that austenitic stainless suffers, which is why it is standard for process heater and reformer tubing.

Nickel-chromium-cobalt-molybdenum alloy for the extreme end of high temperature service. Solid solution strengthening keeps useful creep strength to 1100 C while the chromium and aluminium give oxidation resistance, so 617 is used where 800HT and stainless are long past their limit.

Precipitation-hardened nickel alloy developed for advanced ultra-supercritical boilers. Gamma-prime strengthening plus about 25% chromium holds creep rupture strength and coal-ash corrosion resistance at 750 C and above, which is beyond what 617 can carry in thick section steam headers.
