INCOLOY® alloy 330 (UNS N08330/W. Nr. 1.4886) is
an austenitic alloy with good high-temperature strength
and corrosion resistance. It has a solid solution
composition and is not hardenable by heat treatment. Its
high nickel and chromium provide good resistance to
oxidation and carburization. Its oxidation resistance is
enhanced by the silicon content.
The alloy’s strength and oxidation resistance at
elevated temperatures make it a useful material for
industrial heating furnaces; for muffles, retorts,
conveyor systems, baskets and boxes, and various
fixtures.
