Principal Features

Haynes International, Inc. is pleased to announce the development of HAYNES® HR-224® alloy, a new alloy with excellent oxidation resistance and improved fabricability and weldability compared to HAYNES® 214® alloy. This Ni–27.5Fe–20Cr–3.8Al alloy achieves superior oxidation resistance through the formation of a tightly adherent alumina protective scale. It exhibits excellent ductility and formability characteristics, with weldability on par with nickel-iron-chromium alloys of substantially lower aluminum contents. Potential uses include applications in heat recuperators, automotive catalytic converters and heat shields, strand annealing furnace tubulars, and other severely oxidizing environments.

*Please contact our technical support team if you have technical questions about this alloy.

Resistance to Strain Age Cracking

The Controlled Heating-Rate Tensile (CHRT) test is an excellent measure of the resistance of gamma-prime forming superalloys to strain-age cracking. Samples of thickness 0.063” (1.6 mm), originally in the solution annealed condition, are heated to the test temperature at a rate of 25-30°F (14-17°C) per minute, this being representative of a typical post-weld heat treatment. In this case, tests were performed at 1450°F (788°C). The susceptibility to strain-age cracking is related to the minimum tensile elongation observed within that temperature range (the higher the minimum elongation, the greater is the resistance to strain-age cracking).

Heat Treatment

HAYNES® HR-224® alloy is furnished in the solution heat-treated condition, unless otherwise specified.  The alloy is normally final solution heat-treated at 2025 to 2075°F (1107 to 1135°C) for a time commensurate with section thickness and rapidly cooled or water-quenched for optimal properties.
