A286 Round Bars Manufacturer, Stockist and Exporter

A286 Round Bars are high-strength, iron-nickel-chromium-based superalloy bars that are primarily used in high-temperature and corrosive environments. They are renowned for their excellent oxidation resistance, making them ideal for aerospace, power generation, and chemical processing industries. The alloy maintains its mechanical properties at elevated temperatures up to 1300°F (700°C). A286 Round Bars exhibit remarkable creep resistance and fatigue strength, allowing them to perform reliably in critical applications. The alloy can be solution-annealed and age-hardened to achieve optimal performance. Their uniform microstructure ensures predictable performance and superior reliability. A286 Round Bars are widely specified in engineering projects requiring long-term durability.

The mechanical properties of A286 Round Bars make them suitable for critical components such as turbine shafts, fasteners, and valves. These bars offer a high tensile strength, with values ranging from 1300 to 1700 MPa after proper heat treatment. They have a good yield strength, ensuring resistance to permanent deformation under stress. The alloy also demonstrates excellent toughness, even at sub-zero temperatures. A286 Round Bars are often chosen for components that undergo cyclic loading, as they exhibit superior fatigue resistance. Additionally, they maintain dimensional stability under thermal expansion and contraction. The alloy’s combination of strength and stability makes it a preferred choice in demanding applications.

A286 Round Bars are highly resistant to oxidation and corrosion in various media, including air, steam, and certain acids. Their chromium and nickel content contribute to the formation of a protective oxide layer on the surface. This resistance makes them suitable for high-temperature environments where other materials may degrade quickly. The alloy also shows good resistance to stress corrosion cracking. These properties are critical for components used in power plants, chemical plants, and aerospace engines. A286 Round Bars can withstand long-term exposure to elevated temperatures without significant loss of mechanical integrity. They are often selected for applications where reliability is paramount. The alloy’s resistance to environmental degradation ensures a long service life.

In terms of fabrication, A286 Round Bars can be machined, forged, and heat-treated effectively. Machining requires appropriate tooling and cutting speeds due to the alloy’s high strength. Heat treatment processes such as solution annealing and aging optimize mechanical properties. A286 Round Bars can also be welded using conventional methods, though post-weld heat treatment is recommended to restore mechanical properties. The alloy exhibits good dimensional stability during thermal processing, minimizing distortion. Proper handling and processing techniques are essential to maintain surface quality. These fabrication characteristics make A286 Round Bars versatile for diverse engineering requirements.

The chemical composition of A286 Round Bars is carefully controlled to achieve a balance of strength, corrosion resistance, and thermal stability. Typically, the alloy contains around 25–26% nickel, 14–15% chromium, and small amounts of molybdenum, titanium, and aluminum. The presence of these elements contributes to age-hardening capability and improved creep resistance. Carbon content is kept low to enhance toughness while maintaining strength. Trace elements may be added to control grain size and improve oxidation resistance. This precise chemical balance ensures the alloy performs consistently in high-stress applications. Engineers rely on these compositional characteristics to design components for critical environments.
