ASTM B729 Alloy20 (UNS N08020) Seamless Tube, Corrosion-Resistant for Acidic Environments
ASTM B729 Alloy20 (UNS N08020) Seamless Tube, Corrosion-Resistant for Acidic Environments
Brief Introduction
ASTM B729 Alloy20 seamless tube (SMLS TUBE) is a high-performance nickel-iron-chromium-molybdenum-copper alloy tube, strictly compliant with ASTM B729 / ASME SB729 standard, mainly made of Alloy20 (UNS N08020, EN 2.4660). It is a super austenitic alloy specially designed for corrosive service, featuring excellent resistance to sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid and chloride ion stress corrosion cracking, superior to ordinary stainless steel. With good mechanical properties, weldability and processing performance, it is a key component for conveying corrosive media in harsh industrial environments, widely used in chemical, petrochemical, pharmaceutical and other fields to ensure stable and efficient operation of pipeline systems.
