1. Introduction to Alloy 926

Alloy 926 is a super-austenitic stainless steel enhanced with high molybdenum (6.0–7.0%), nitrogen (0.15–0.25%), and nickel (24–26%). Designed for extreme corrosive environments, it bridges the gap between standard austenitic steels (e.g., 316L) and high-cost nickel alloys. Its key features include:

• Exceptional corrosion resistance in chloride-rich media (e.g., seawater, acids)246.

• High strength and ductility due to nitrogen strengthening18.

• Applications span marine engineering, chemical processing, and pollution control systems510.

5. Advantages of Alloy 926 Strip

• Corrosion Superiority: Outperforms 904L, 316L, and duplex steels in chloride/sulfide media410.

• Cost Efficiency: Economical alternative to nickel alloys (e.g., Hastelloy) in marine/chemical systems210.

• Mechanical Robustness: 35% elongation enables deep drawing; high strength allows thinner sections89.

• Weldability: Maintains corrosion resistance post-welding with proper fillers68.

7. Suppliers & Notes

• Key Suppliers: Shanghai Baoyuan Steel59, Shanghai Weili Metal7.

• Handling Tips:

  • Avoid sulfur contamination during heat treatment (max 0.1% in fuel)8.

  • Cold working >15% requires re-solution annealing8.
