Your Trusted Source for FeCrAl Alloy Manufacturing
FeCrAl alloy (Ferritic iron-chromium-aluminum alloy) is a high-performance heating material with characteristics of high resistance, low temperature coefficient of electric resistance, high operating temperature, good corrosion resistance under high temperature, and superior oxidation resistance. It is widely used in chemical processing, metallurgy, and high-temperature heating equipment, offering a durable and stable heating solution. Heating elements made from FeCrAl alloy help optimize energy efficiency and reduce industrial production costs.
Available grades: 1Cr13Al4, 0Cr25Al5, 0Cr21Al6, 0Cr23Al5, 0Cr21Al4, 0Cr21Al6Nb, 0Cr27Al7Mo2
- FeCrAl alloy has a high melting point, typically above 1400°C, and can maintain stable performance at 1200°C for extended periods.
- At high temperatures, the aluminum in the alloy forms a dense aluminum oxide (Al₂O₃) protective film, which prevents further oxidation and enhances durability.
- The material exhibits low volatility and strong sulfur resistance, ensuring long-term stability while reducing material loss and replacement frequency.
- It has high resistivity with minimal resistance variation at elevated temperatures, making it highly suitable for heating applications.
- Compared to Nickel-Chromium alloys, FeCrAl alloy offers similar or superior performance at a lower cost, providing a more cost-effective solution for industrial heating applications.
