Nichrome

Nichrome X20N80 is a widely used steel alloy in the category of precision alloys known for its high specific electrical resistance. It is distinguished by its higher nickel content, which enhances its operational characteristics. However, it’s important to note that nichrome X20N80 typically comes at a higher cost compared to other steel alloys.

Among alloys with similar applications, nichrome X20N80 stands out as the most popular choice, as its properties make it particularly suitable for manufacturing components in electric heating devices. Nichrome X20N80 is prized for its heat resistance, plasticity, and shape stability. Products and parts made from this alloy are employed in harsh environments where resistance to high temperatures and corrosion is crucial.

Key features of nichrome X20N80 include:

Heat resistance: This alloy belongs to the category of heat-resistant materials and can withstand temperatures of up to 1200°C, with a melting point of 1400°C. The thickness (or diameter) of the nichrome component influences its maximum operating temperature.

Corrosion resistance: X20N80 retains its heat resistance when exposed to ammonia, nitrogen, and oxidizing environments. However, it can lose its structural stability when in contact with sulfur and sulfurous substances.

Durability: Nichrome products are designed for prolonged use under constant heating conditions, and X20N80 steel maintains its properties. It tends to be more resistant to wear and tear compared to other alloys with the same number of heating cycles and temperatures exceeding 600°C.

Surface characteristics: Unlike alloys with a higher iron content, nichrome steel doesn’t form surface oxides during use, expanding its range of applications for wire and tapes.

Nichrome alloy X20N80 serves as a versatile material for manufacturing electric heating elements in household appliances and industrial equipment. Its high nickel content ensures high plasticity, allowing it to be processed through various methods such as turning, drawing, welding, and stamping. This alloy is commonly used for producing cold-drawn wire and strips, both of which play crucial roles in the creation of heating elements for electrical appliances.
