Product Features


Exceptional Oxidation Resistance

At the core of the GH3039 nickel superalloy pipe’s performance is its outstanding oxidation resistance. Formulated with 19-22% chromium (Cr) and trace amounts of aluminum (Al) and titanium (Ti), the alloy forms a dense, adherent oxide layer on its surface when exposed to high temperatures and oxidizing atmospheres. This layer acts as a barrier, preventing further oxidation and degradation of the pipe—even in continuous service at temperatures up to 1100℃. For applications such as furnace tubes and jet engine components, this oxidation-resistant alloy tube ensures long service life and minimal maintenance.


Reliable Creep Resistance

Creep (time-dependent deformation under high temperature and stress) is a major challenge for high-temperature components, but the Nimonic 75 alloy tube addresses this with its superior creep resistance. The addition of 1.8-2.3% molybdenum (Mo) and 0.9-1.3% niobium (Nb) strengthens the alloy’s crystal structure, inhibiting grain boundary sliding and creep deformation. This allows the pipe to maintain its dimensional stability and mechanical strength for thousands of hours in high-temperature, high-stress environments—making it indispensable for power plant turbines, heat exchangers, and aerospace propulsion systems.


Balanced Mechanical Properties

The GH3039/Nimonic 75 pipe offers a well-balanced combination of strength and ductility, even at elevated temperatures. Its precise chemical composition (nickel as the base element, with controlled amounts of Cr, Mo, Al, Ti, and Nb) ensures tensile strength, yield strength, and elongation that meet the demands of critical applications. Whether subjected to thermal cycling, pressure, or mechanical stress, the pipe retains its structural integrity, avoiding brittle fracture or permanent deformation. This balance makes it easy to fabricate (weld, bend, form) while maintaining performance.


Precise Chemical Composition

Every element in the nickel-based superalloy pipe is carefully calibrated to enhance performance: Nickel (Ni): Allowance (primary base metal), Chromium (Cr): 19-22% (oxidation resistance), Molybdenum (Mo): 1.8-2.3% (creep resistance), Niobium (Nb): 0.9-1.3% (grain refinement), Aluminum (Al): 0.35-0.75% (oxide layer formation), Titanium (Ti): 0.35-0.75% (strengthening), Iron (Fe): Max 3%, Carbon (C): Max 0.08%, Manganese (Mn): Max 0.4%, Silicon (Si): Max 0.8%, Sulfur (S): Max 0.012%, Phosphorus (P): Max 0.02%, Copper (Cu): Max 0.2%. Impurity control ensures the alloy’s purity and consistency.


Consistent Physical Characteristics

The GH3039 alloy pipe boasts stable physical properties across a wide temperature range. With a density of 8.3 g/cm³, it is lightweight enough for aerospace and automotive applications while offering the strength to withstand high pressures. Its thermal conductivity and specific heat capacity are optimized for heat transfer applications, such as heat exchangers and boiler tubes. Additionally, the alloy’s low thermal expansion coefficient minimizes dimensional changes during temperature fluctuations, ensuring a tight fit in assembled systems and reducing the risk of leaks or failures.

Applications


Aerospace & Aviation Industry

The GH3039 nickel superalloy pipe is a critical component in aerospace and aviation systems, including jet engines, gas turbines, and rocket propulsion systems. Its ability to resist oxidation and creep at temperatures up to 1170℃ makes it ideal for exhaust pipes, combustion chambers, and turbine blades. The Nimonic 75 alloy tube’s lightweight design also contributes to fuel efficiency, a key priority in aerospace engineering.


Energy Generation (Power Plants)

In thermal power plants, nuclear power plants, and renewable energy systems (e.g., concentrated solar power), the nickel-based superalloy pipe is used in boilers, heat exchangers, and steam turbines. It withstands the high temperatures and pressures of steam generation, ensuring efficient energy conversion and long equipment life. Its creep resistance is particularly valuable in power plant turbines, where components operate under sustained high stress and temperature.


Chemical & Petrochemical Processing

The GH3039/Nimonic 75 pipe is well-suited for chemical and petrochemical plants, where it is used in reactors, pipelines, and catalytic crackers. It resists corrosion from aggressive chemicals (e.g., hydrocarbons, acids, and catalysts) and maintains performance at elevated temperatures during chemical reactions and distillation processes. Its durability reduces downtime and maintenance costs in harsh processing environments.


Industrial Furnaces & Heat Exchangers

Industrial furnaces (e.g., heat treatment furnaces, glass melting furnaces) and heat exchangers rely on the oxidation-resistant alloy tube to withstand continuous exposure to high temperatures and oxidizing atmospheres. The GH3039 pipe’s ability to form a protective oxide layer prevents scaling and degradation, extending the service life of furnace liners, heating elements, and heat exchanger tubes. It is also used in waste heat recovery systems, maximizing energy efficiency.

FAQ


What is the difference between GH3039 and Nimonic 75?

GH3039 and Nimonic 75 are essentially the same nickel-based superalloy—the difference lies in their designation standards. GH3039 is the Chinese (GB/T) designation, while Nimonic 75 is the British (BS) and international designation. Both share the same chemical composition, mechanical properties, and performance characteristics, making them interchangeable in most applications.


How does Nimonic 75 achieve creep resistance?

The Nimonic 75 alloy tube achieves superior creep resistance through its chemical composition and microstructural design. Molybdenum (Mo) and niobium (Nb) strengthen the alloy’s crystal lattice, inhibiting grain boundary sliding (a key cause of creep). Additionally, aluminum (Al) and titanium (Ti) form intermetallic compounds (e.g., γ’ phase) that further reinforce the structure, preventing deformation under high temperature and stress.


Can GH3039 alloy tubes be welded?

Yes, GH3039 nickel superalloy tubes are weldable using standard welding processes, including TIG (GTAW), MIG (GMAW), and resistance welding. To ensure weld integrity, we recommend using matching nickel-based filler metals (e.g., ERNiCrMo-3) and preheating the base metal to 150-200℃. Post-weld heat treatment (solution annealing) may be required to restore corrosion resistance and mechanical properties in critical applications—our technical team can provide detailed welding guidelines.


What quality inspections are conducted on GH3039/Nimonic 75 pipes?

Every batch of nickel-based superalloy pipe undergoes rigorous quality inspections, including chemical composition analysis (XRF/ICP), mechanical property testing (tensile, creep, fatigue), dimensional accuracy checks (laser measurement), surface inspection (ultrasonic, eddy current), and non-destructive testing (NDT) for defects. We also conduct oxidation and corrosion resistance testing to ensure compliance with industry standards. A comprehensive MTC is provided with each order, documenting all test results.
