At USA Piping Solution, we position ourselves as your go-to US supplier for high-grade Inconel 800 Pipes & Tubes. Our focus is squarely on providing reliable nickel-alloy solutions built to handle tough industrial conditions. Known formally as UNS N08800, Inconel 800 has earned its place due to impressive strength when things get hot, coupled with excellent resistance to oxidation and carburization. Whether your project requires the unbroken structure of seamless piping or the utility of welded tubes, USA Piping Solution delivers Inconel 800 products manufactured against strict quality benchmarks. When you need critical piping, partnering with us brings you focused expertise, a ready inventory, and a genuine commitment to getting it right.

Getting to Know Inconel 800 Pipes & Tubes

So, what sets Inconel 800 apart? This material (UNS N08800 / W.Nr. 1.4876) is a well-regarded nickel-iron-chromium alloy. It was specifically developed for applications needing not just strength, but also solid corrosion resistance, especially as temperatures climb towards 1100°F (593°C). A significant benefit is its excellent metallurgical stability – it resists becoming brittle after long spells at high heat, unlike some other materials.

Here’s a look at its key strengths:

• Performs Under Heat: It holds onto considerable strength, making it reliable for structural components within heat-intensive processes.
• Resists Oxidation: Thanks to ample chromium, it forms a tenacious surface oxide layer that shields the metal, performing well even with temperature swings.
• Stands Up to Carburization: The nickel-chromium mix offers good protection against carbon absorption, common in heat treating or petrochemical environments.
• General Corrosion Defense: It holds up well against many water-based corrosive agents and shows fair resistance to chloride stress-corrosion cracking.
• Workable Material: Engineers find it relatively easy to form, weld, and machine using standard shop practices.

(Important note: We also supply the related Incoloy 800H/HT grades (UNS N08810/N08811), which are tailored for even higher temperature service.)

Ultimately, UNS N08800 Tubes and pipes are proven workhorses where heat and corrosion are major factors, offering a smart combination of performance and value.

Inconel 800 Pipes & Tubes Specifications

Meeting the right specifications is crucial. At USA Piping Solution, we ensure our Inconel 800 materials adhere to established international standards and your exact project needs.

• Tube OD: From 0.250" (6.35mm) up to 10" (254mm) and beyond.
• Wall Thickness: Covers standard schedules (Sch 5S to XXS) and specific custom walls.
• Available Forms: Round, Square, Rectangular; Hydraulic & Instrumentation Tubing; U-Tubes; Coiled Tubing.
• Lengths: Single Random (approx. 17-24 ft), Double Random (approx. 36-44 ft), or Cut-to-Length per your specs.
• End Preparations: Plain End (PE), Beveled for welding (BE), or Threaded (TE).
• Protection: Ends capped with plastic plugs for transit.
• Surface Options: Standard Annealed & Pickled, Bright Annealed (BA), As-produced Mill Finish, various Polished finishes.

We collaborate with you to ensure every technical detail matches your application's demands.

Chemical Makeup and Mechanical Strength

Inconel 800 gets its reliable performance from a carefully balanced chemical recipe and the resulting physical strength.

Types and Variations Available

We provide Inconel 800 in several formats to best suit your project:

1. Seamless: Offers top-tier integrity for pressure containment and critical uses.
2. Welded (ERW/EFW): A dependable and often budget-friendly option for many industrial needs. Inconel 800 Alloy Pipes in welded form provide solid performance.
3. Finishes/Forms: Choose from standard Annealed & Pickled, brighter BA finishes, pre-bent U-Tubes for heat exchangers, or long Coiled Tubing runs.

Selecting the right type involves considering pressure, temperature, corrosion factors, necessary reliability, and cost. Our team is here to help you weigh these factors.

Where Inconel 800 Shines: Applications

You'll find Inconel 800 Pipes & Tubes hard at work in many demanding industries:

• Petrochemicals: Vital in furnaces, reformer units, transfer lines (good carburization resistance).
• Chemical Plants: Handling various acids and chemicals at heat (exchangers, reactors).
• Power Generation: Used in boiler tubing (superheaters/reheaters) in fossil fuel and nuclear plants.
• Heat Treating: Furnace components like baskets, fixtures, radiant tubes benefit from its endurance.
