Womic Stainless Steel Co., Ltd
Exceptional Resistance to Reducing and Oxidizing Acids:
High nickel (38–46%), chromium (19.5–23.5%), molybdenum (2.5–3.5%), and copper (1.5–3.0%) provide outstanding resistance to both reducing acids (sulfuric, phosphoric) and oxidizing acids (nitric).
Superior Pitting and Crevice Corrosion Resistance:
Molybdenum and chromium content provide excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion in chloride-containing environments, seawater, and sour service.
Excellent Stress Corrosion Cracking Resistance:
High nickel content provides outstanding resistance to chloride-induced SCC and sulfide-induced SSCC, significantly outperforming all stainless steel grades.
Outstanding Sulfuric and Phosphoric Acid Resistance:
Copper addition provides exceptional resistance to sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) and phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄), making Alloy 825 the preferred choice for fertilizer and hydrometallurgical heat exchangers.
Excellent Resistance to Sour Service (H₂S):
Fully compliant with NACE MR0175/ISO 15156 for sour service applications up to 232°C (450°F), suitable for oil and gas heat exchangers handling H₂S-containing streams.
Good High-Temperature Strength:
Maintains excellent mechanical properties up to 540°C (1000°F), suitable for high-temperature heat transfer applications.
Titanium Stabilization:
Titanium addition (0.6–1.2%) stabilizes the alloy against intergranular corrosion after welding or high-temperature exposure.
Good Heat Transfer Efficiency:
Thermal conductivity comparable to austenitic stainless steels, with excellent heat transfer performance in corrosive environments.
Excellent Weldability:
Nickel-based alloy offers good weldability with matching filler metals (ERNiCrMo-3 or ERNiCrMo-10), suitable for tube-to-tubesheet welding.
Precision Dimensional Accuracy:
Strict tolerances on outside diameter (OD), wall thickness, and concentricity ensure proper fitment in tube sheets.
International Certification:
Tubes can be certified by ABS, BV, DNV, LR, GL, RINA, CCS, KR, and NK, and comply with NACE MR0175/ISO 15156 and ASME Boiler & Pressure Vessel Code Section VIII for pressure equipment.

Alloy 825 Heat Exchanger Tubes are normally supplied in the annealed condition (solution annealed at 925–1040°C) followed by rapid cooling (water quenching or rapid air cooling). This heat treatment:
l Dissolves precipitated carbides and intermetallic phases.
l Relieves internal stresses from cold drawing or cold pilgering.
l Restores optimum corrosion resistance and ductility.
l Ensures titanium stabilization is effective.
Critical Note: Alloy 825 is titanium-stabilized, which prevents sensitization and intergranular corrosion after welding. Unlike stainless steels, Alloy 825 can be used in the as-welded condition without post-weld heat treatment for many corrosive environments. However, for maximum corrosion resistance in severe service, solution annealing after welding is recommended.
Delivery Condition:
Tubes are normally supplied in annealed and pickled condition, providing a clean,
smooth surface and excellent corrosion resistance. Upon request, bright annealed (BA) finish
can be provided for applications requiring ultra-clean internal surfaces.
Womic Steel adopts advanced production technology to ensure each Alloy 825 Heat Exchanger Tube meets exact specifications with flawless surface quality and precise dimensional accuracy.
1. Raw Material Selection: High-quality Alloy 825 (UNS N08825) nickel alloy billets from certified premium mills (Special Metals, VDM Metals, Outokumpu, Sandvik) with certified chemical composition (Ni, Cr, Mo, Cu, Ti verification) and traceability.
2. Heating and Piercing: Billets heated to a controlled temperature (higher than stainless steel due to nickel content) and pierced using a rotary piercing mill to form hollow shells.
3. Hot Rolling: Shells elongated and rolled to desired intermediate size with strict temperature control. Nickel alloys require careful reduction rates.
4. Cold Drawing / Cold Pilgering: Tubes refined to precise dimensions with improved surface finish. Multiple passes with intermediate annealing required due to high work hardening rate.
5. Solution Annealing: Heat treatment at 925–1040°C to dissolve carbides and restore properties. Performed in controlled atmosphere furnaces for bright annealed finish.
6. Pickling & Passivation: Removal of oxides using specialized pickling acids optimized for nickel alloys; thorough rinsing required.
7. Straightening and Dimensional Calibration: Ensures consistent roundness, straightness, and wall uniformity. Special attention to OD tolerance for tube sheet fitment.
8. Cutting and End Finishing: Tubes cut to precise lengths with square ends, deburred, and prepared for tube sheet insertion.
9. Final Inspection & Marking: Each tube tested, marked with grade, heat number, standard, and tube dimensions before packing.
This process guarantees a smooth internal bore, high structural integrity, precise dimensional accuracy, and exceptional corrosion resistance across all batches of Womic Steel’s Alloy 825 Heat Exchanger Tubes.
Womic Steel utilizes state-of-the-art manufacturing technology to ensure every Welded Alloy 825 Heat Exchanger Tube meets precise specifications and delivers excellent surface quality and performance.
1. Raw Material Selection: High-quality Alloy 825 (UNS N08825) nickel alloy strips/coils from certified premium mills with full traceability.
2. Slitting & Uncoiling: Precision slitting to required width; edge preparation to ensure clean, burr-free edges for welding.
3. Forming & Welding: The strip is progressively formed into a cylindrical shape. The edges are welded using advanced TIG or Plasma welding with:
l Appropriate heat input control
l Shielding gas: Argon (or Ar + He for higher heat input)
l Matching filler metal: ERNiCrMo-3 (Alloy 625) or ERNiCrMo-10 (Alloy 22) for optimal weld properties
l Back purge with argon to protect weld root
4. Weld Seam Treatment: External weld bead removal to achieve smooth surface flush with base metal. Internal bead may be controlled or removed.
5. Solution Annealing: Full heat treatment of the entire welded tube at 925–1040°C followed by rapid cooling – essential for restoring corrosion resistance and relieving weld stresses.
6. Sizing & Calibration: The tube is passed through a sizing mill to achieve final precise OD and roundness.
7. Straightening: The tube is straightened to ensure optimal linearity for tube sheet insertion.
8. Non-Destructive Testing (NDT) : Weld seam inspected using Eddy Current Testing (ECT) or Ultrasonic Testing (UT). 100% of tube length tested.
9. Hydrostatic Testing: Each tube pressure tested to verify leak-tight integrity.
10. Final Inspection & Marking: Complete dimensional check, visual inspection, and traceable marking.
This controlled process guarantees a sound weld seam, excellent dimensional accuracy, smooth internal surface, and superior corrosion resistance for every batch of Womic Steel’s Welded Alloy 825 Heat Exchanger Tubes.

Womic Steel offers a range of surface finishes for Alloy 825 heat exchanger tubes, each suited to specific corrosive and high-temperature applications.
|
Surface Type |
Description |
Typical Applications |
|
Annealed & Pickled (AP Finish) |
Standard industrial finish – matte, oxide-free after acid treatment. |
Most heat exchanger applications, acid service, sour service. |
|
Bright Annealed (BA Finish) |
Mirror-like surface obtained through controlled atmosphere annealing. |
High-purity applications requiring ultra-clean surfaces. |
|
Polished Finish (180#, 240#, 320#) |
Smooth mechanical finish, reduced surface roughness. |
