Alloy 400 (UNS N04400) is a solid-solution Nickel/Copper alloy that can be hardened only by cold working. It has reasonable strength and toughness over a wide temperature range and excellent resistance to many corrosive environments. Alloy 400 is widely used in many fields, especially marine and chemical processing. Typical applications are valves and pumps; pump and propeller shafts; marine fixtures and fasteners; electrical and electronic components; springs; chemical processing equipment; gasoline and fresh water tanks; crude petroleum stills, process vessels and piping; boiler feedwater heaters and other heat exchangers; and deaerating heaters. Please note that we have a minimum order value of £10,000.

HPM® C 276 is a Nickel-Molybdenum-Chromium-Tungsten alloy with a high level of corrosion resistance. A low carbon content enables the alloy to resist intergranular corrosion at weld joints. These attributes make it an important alloy for the most severe chemical processing applications. such as use in metal diaphragms for aerospace sensors and burst discs. The alloy is readily formed from the annealed temper.All standard welding methods except oxy-acetylene can be used for joining. Available Sizes: HPM® C 276 is available from Hamilton Precision Metals as strip product in thicknesses From 0.0005” to 0.050” (0.0127 mm to 1.27 mm) and widths up to 12.0” (304.8 mm). The material conforms to ASTM B575 and UNS N10276.

Customers in aerospace, oil and gas, chemical processing and other industries all rely on Superior Tube to supply precision thin wall tubing which they use to make bellows and convoluted tubing for a variety of applications. Our convoluting grade tubes are made from several alloys such as Inconel 625 and stainless steel 321. The tubes are then hydro or mechanically formed into flexible hoses, which are often used to transport fluids and gases in various industries. Superior currently produces bellows and convoluting grade tubing from 1.0” in outside diameter down to under .250” OD with wall thickness as light as .003”. If you have demand within or outside of this range, please contact us so we can provide a solution. Please note that we have a minimum order value of £10,000.

Heat exchangers – used to cool, heat or reheat fluids, gases and air – are an area that Superior Tube specializes in. We offer a range of products specifically meeting the demands of companies fabricating shell and tube heat exchangers. Our heat exchanger tubes are used in a wide range of industries such as chemical processing, hydrocarbon processing and oil refining, alternative energy, nuclear power generation and aerospace. The stainless steel and nickel alloys we manufacture are high strength, corrosive resistant alloys that maintain optimum performance in extreme conditions. Superior Tube heat exchanger products can be purchased as seamless, welded or welded and drawn tubes in a multitude of sizes ranging from 0.010” OD to 1.500” OD with wall thickness as light as .003” Please note that we have a minimum order value of £10,000.

17-4 PH®, a wrought compressed stainless steel powder, combines high strength and high hardness with excellent corrosion resistance, fracture toughness and heat treatment properties. When machined, 17-4 PH® produces long, gummy chips. While soft and ductile in an annealed condition, it is capable of high hardness properties with a single precipitation or aging treatment. Applications 17-4 PH® is ideal for manufacturing aircraft fittings, braces, chemical processing components, coupling, fasteners, gas turbines, gears, hydraulic actuators, jet engines, nuclear reactor parts, pump shafts, rocket and missile components, valve stems and wear rings. The physical properties of 17-4 PH® stainless steel make it weldable by common fusion and resistance techniques. Among members of the precipitation hardening class of stainless steels, 17-4 PH® has the best weldability.

347 (UNS S34700/1.4550) is a fully austenitic niobium stabilised stainless steel. The addition of Niobium reduces the creation of carbide precipitation in service between 430 to 900 degrees C and during welding processes and increases the mechanical strength of the material. This grade has good resistance to oxidation and corrosion along with good creep strength and can be used at temperatures where carbide precipitation may occur in non-stabilised grades e.g., 304. It is used principally in aerospace exhaust manifolds and engine components, chemical processing equipment running at high temperatures and in nuclear processing piping.
