A286 Protection From High Temperatures or Corrosive Conditions?

Posted on May 3, 2021 by Kathleen

Q: I have an high temperature exhaust application that requires about 130ksi of tensile strength and is running pretty hot at 1000F. There are also some low concentration acidic contaminants that condense on the bolts during shutdowns, that have caused corrosion in the past on standard 316 bolting. Would A286 … Continue reading →
