Product Overview
HAYNES HR-160 is a solid-solution strengthened nickel-based alloy developed for extreme high-temperature environments where outstanding resistance to oxidation, carburization, and metal dusting is required. The alloy maintains excellent mechanical stability during prolonged exposure to elevated temperatures and performs reliably in aggressive industrial atmospheres.
HAYNES HR-160 also demonstrates good fabricability and weldability, making it suitable for plates, sheets, and finned components used in thermal processing, heat-transfer systems, and industrial furnace equipment.
