Hastelloy® Applications:
Hastelloy® is used extensively in check valves where maximum resistance to corrosion and wear are required
Features:
Hastelloy C is resistant to strong oxidizing agents such as nitric acid, free chlorine and aqueous solutions of ferric or cupric salts. It is also resistant to hydrochloric acid at room temperature and highly resistant to acetic, formic, phosphoric, sulfurous and hydrofluoric acids. Hastelloy C also has excellent resistance to mixtures of zinc and ammonium chlorides.
Hastelloy D is exceptionally resistant to sulfuric acid of all concentrations and temperatures up to its boiling point.

Inconel Balls
General:
Inconel balls, can be made from a variety of Inconel alloys. Inconel alloys are a nickel base with chromium and iron. Many Inconel alloys were developed for specific applications. Inconel balls can be made from these various alloys to satisfy the need for mechanical properties at high temperatures and corrosion resistance to certain chemicals often at elevated temperatures. Inconel alloys generally have excellent creep and rupture strength and high tensile and yield strengths especially at elevated temperatures.
Inconel ball applications:
Inconel balls are made for use in jet engine applications where high temperatures exist. Inconel balls and seats have been used by NASA on the space shuttle launch pads. Inconel balls are also made for valves and pumps and other fluid handling equipment when corrosion resistance is required. Inconel alloy balls are often used when the corrosion requirements are too severe for the common stainless steels available. Inconel alloys have excellent resistance to hot sulfuric acids, other oxidizing acids, and sea water. Inconel balls have been made from Inconel Alloy 600, Inconel 625, Inconel Alloy718, and Inconel X750.
Stock and availability:
Inconel Alloy balls are manufactured to our customers needs from their specifications. Although we do not stock Inconel balls, we do maintain an inventory of raw material that can quickly be turned into a ball that meets your specifications.
Manufacturing and Design:
Inconel alloys can be made in a variety of ball grades and from 1/16 in. to over 3 inches in diameter depending on customer requirements. ITI has over 50 years of ball-making experience. If your design calls for an Inconel ball, let one of ITI’s engineers assist you with material and ball design specifications.
Remember; make ITI your first choice when considering balls made from Inconel Alloys!
