NC20T (2.4951 / NiCr20Ti) is a titanium-stabilized nickel-chromium heat-resistant alloy certified to AIR 9165 standards. It delivers stable creep resistance up to 800°C and exceptional oxidation and corrosion resistance up to 1100°C, making it a preferred material for gas turbine components, flame tubes, and heat treatment furnace hardware. As a trusted Chinese nickel alloy supplier with decades of experience, ZYTC Alloy supplies certified NC20T bars, forgings, and finished parts with full traceability and batch-to-batch consistency.
1. Product Specifications & Chemical CompositionNC20T alloy composition is precisely controlled per AIR 9165 specifications. The scientific ratio of nickel, chromium, and titanium ensures dual high-temperature performance—creep resistance and oxidation protection—while strict impurity control guarantees stable metallurgical quality. | Elements | Min.(≥) | Max.(≤) |

2. Core Material Properties2.1 High-Temperature Creep Resistance Unlike conventional heat-resistant steels, NC20T maintains stable mechanical strength under long-term static and dynamic loads at temperatures up to 800°C. This creep resistance prevents permanent structural deformation, ensuring reliable performance in continuous high-temperature service. 2.2 Oxidation & Corrosion Resistance Benefiting from its high chromium content and titanium grain stabilization, NC20T withstands extreme oxidizing environments up to 1100°C. A dense, adherent chromium oxide layer forms on the surface during high-temperature exposure, effectively isolating oxygen, flue gas, and corrosive media. Compared to standard stainless steels, NC20T offers significantly extended service life under thermal cycling conditions. 2.3 Physical Properties (Reference) Density: 8.2 g/cm³ Thermal Conductivity (20°C): 12 – 13 W/m·K Melting Range: 1340 – 1380°C Structural Feature: Uniform grain structure with good high-temperature plasticity and processability

3. Professional Forging & Heat Treatment ProcessThe forging quality of NC20T components directly determines final high-temperature performance and service life. Based on AIR 9165 specifications, ZYTC Alloy adopts a standardized forging process: Optimal Forging Temperature Range: 950°C – 1150°C Post-Forging Treatment: Graded cooling followed by customized heat treatment to eliminate residual stress, refine metallographic structure, and maximize creep resistance and oxidation protection.
Nickel-based alloys are highly sensitive to processing temperatures. Non-standard forging practices can cause grain coarsening, reduced high-temperature strength, and performance instability. ZYTC Alloy’s mature forging technology and strict process management ensure reliable forged blanks and finished parts for high-end industrial applications.
