Alloy G-30 (UNS N06030) is a Ni-Cr-Fe corrosion-resistant alloy with alloying additions of molibdenum, tungsten, copper and niobium. Generally resistant to oxidizing environments, it's extremely resistant to phosphoric acid (P2O5) and thus used widely in the production of agrichemical fertilizers. It can be seen as a low-carbon variant of alloy G, with improved weldability (it's less prone to heat-affected zome carbide precipitation and hot-cracking), and ductility.Used in phosphoric acid plants, sulphuric acid service, nitric acid service, pickling operations, petrochemical operations, fertilizer manufacture, pesticide manufacture, gold extraction and nuclear waste processing.
Pipe nipples are sometimes referred to as barrel nipples which unless otherwise stated, are tapered NPT threaded at each end with an unthreaded section in the middle. Nipples that are threaded on both ends are commonly referred to as T.B.E which stands for threaded both ends. When looking at the lengths of the nipple, the length is specified by the overall length including the threads.
