ASTM B729 UNS N08020 Nickel Alloy Steel Tube
Overview
ASTM B729 is a standard specification that outlines the requirements for seamless UNS N08020 (also known as alloy 20) nickel alloy pipes and tubes. UNS N08020 is a highly corrosion-resistant alloy that consists of nickel， chromium， molybdenum， and copper.
Alloy 20 (UNS N08020) offers excellent resistance to general corrosion， pitting， and crevice corrosion in various environments， including sulfuric acid， phosphoric acid， acetic acid， and chloride-containing solutions. It is widely used in industries such as chemical processing， pharmaceuticals， food processing， and petrochemicals.The ASTM B729 specification provides guidelines for the dimensions， mechanical properties， heat treatment， and other requirements for seamless alloy 20 pipes and tubes.
