Alloy 6 cast in low temp service

Alloy 6 cast in low temp service

(OP)
I have been asked to provide the physical properties of cast alloy 6 (stellite 6) down to low temperature (-46 deg C). Anybody know where I can find data that would prove it's capability?

Thanks hsbcn, however the datasheet doesn't deal with low temp.

RE: Alloy 6 cast in low temp service

Know this material has been used for many years down to -196degC. No data to back up suitability other than experience.

RE: Alloy 6 cast in low temp service


Try suppliers for arctic regions, for instance Metso. Some of theese will have certified valves or experience with this material qualification.

What is the exact purpose? Piping, valves or whatever? Why material only? If combined with other material or a combined product(valve?, the whole contraption including other materials and/or the total of assembled pieces would have to be opertive at this temperature.
