VDM® Alloy 330 (1.4864, 1.4886/N08330)
VDM® Alloy 330 and DS are nickel-iron-chromium solidsolution alloys with the addition of approximately 2% silicon.
VDM® Alloy 330 is also available with reduced chromium content in the variant acc. to UNS N08330.
Characteristics of VDM® Alloy 330/DS
VDM® Alloy 330 and DS (1.4864, 1.4886/N08330) is characterized by:
- good oxidation and scale resistance
- excellent resistance to carburisation and to alternating carburising and oxidising atmospheres
- good mechanical properties with high strength at elevated temperatures
Applications of VDM® Alloy 330/DS
VDM® Alloy 330/DS find wide application in high-temperature processes like:
- fans operating at high temperatures in carburising furnaces – resisting carburisation
- boxes and baskets used in carburising – resisting carburisation and showing weight savings when compared with cast boxes
- hangers, hooks and conveyor chains used to carry vitreous-enamelled components during firing – resisting oxide spalling so that oxide does not fall on the enamel
- combustion tubes – resisting oxidation to carburisation and alternating oxidising and carburising conditions
- jigs and fixtures used in furnace brazing and wire mesh belts to carry components in heat-treatment processes
- thermocouple sheaths – resisting carburisation and nitriding
- flare-stack tips – resisting alternating conditions
- components handling cracked ammonia
