Alloy X has excellent resistance to reducing and carburizing atmospheres, making it suitable for furnace components. Due to its high molybdenum content, Alloy X may be subject to catastrophic oxidation at 1204°C. The alloy has good high temperature strength coupled with oxidation resistance up to 1093°C. This Alloy is readily weldable using matching filler wires. After severe forming, fabrications may be annealed at 1177°C, 15 minutes per 1/8″ of thickness, rapid air cool. The threaded flange is a kind of flange connected with the pipe by the thread. When designing, it can be treated by loose flange. The advantage is that no welding is required, and the additional torque generated by the flange deformation on the cylinder or pipe is small. The disadvantage is that the flange thickness is large and the cost is high. Suitable for high pressure pipeline connection.
