RAIL® - 135D
Electric Resistance Heating Alloy RAIL® - 135D Wire |
|
RAIL® - 135D is an Iron-Chromium-Aluminium Alloy, mainly composed of high purity electrolytic iron, low carbon Ferro-Chrome and high purity aluminium. It is used at wire temperature up to 1300◦C.
RAIL® - 135D has several unique characteristics like higher resistivity, better oxidation, higher temperature use, lower density, higher yield and longer life. RAIL® - 135D has ferritic structure i.e. its lattice is body-centered cubic. It is particularly characterized by its high resistance to sulphurous gases and also it is less liable to carburizing compared to austenitic alloys like Nickel-Chrome and Nickel-Chrome-Iron Alloys.
RAIL® - 135D is popular electric resistance heating alloy for use in industrial furnaces, ovens and domestic electric appliances.
