Heat-resistant alloy Alloy HT 70 (UNS N06008): technical specifications

Engineering and Technical Parameters of Alloy HT 70

Alloy HT 70 is a precision nickel-chromium (Ni-Cr) alloy designed for operation in extreme high-temperature environments. Its high chromium concentration (up to 30%) provides excellent resistance to high-temperature oxidation and scaling, which is a critical factor for the longevity of heating elements in industrial furnaces and installations. EV Group China produces this material in the form of wire and strip, certified to key international standards, ensuring consistent performance from batch to batch.
