Alloy 20 Material Overview
Alloy 20 is a nickel iron chromium alloy that has been developed to give dependable sulfuric acid and other hostile chemical resistance. The wide specification is used in applications where the traditional stainless steels are prone to localized corrosion, pitting and stress corrosion cracking.
Controlled chemical composition with added copper and molybdenum enables the Alloy 20 to provide constant corrosion resistance with consistent mechanical behavior. This balance renders the material appropriate in the production of industrial parts that are utilized in chemical processing, pharmaceutical production as well as acid handling systems.
Alloy 20 Chemical and Mechanical Characteristics
Alloy 20 is highly functioning in the corrosive service setting due to the optimized chemistry which facilitates resistance in both reducing and oxidizing conditions. The material withstands the structural integrity at pressures and temperatures that are likely to be experienced in process industries.
From a fabrication standpoint, Alloy 20 offers consistent weldability and formability. This allows it to be used across pressure-bearing components, piping connections, and instrumentation assemblies without compromising long-term service reliability.
Alloy 20 Chemical Composition
| Element | Percentage (%) |
|---|---|
| Nickel (Ni) | 32.0 – 38.0 |
| Chromium (Cr) | 19.0 – 21.0 |
| Iron (Fe) | Balance |
| Molybdenum (Mo) | 2.0 – 3.0 |
| Copper (Cu) | 3.0 – 4.0 |
| Carbon (C) | ≤ 0.07 |
| Manganese (Mn) | ≤ 2.0 |
| Silicon (Si) | ≤ 1.0 |
Note: Composition values are indicative and may vary based on product form and applicable standards.

| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Tensile Strength | ≥ 551 MPa |
| Yield Strength (0.2%) | ≥ 241 MPa |
| Elongation | ≥ 30% |
| Hardness | ≤ 217 HB |
Note: Mechanical properties are indicative and may vary depending on product form, heat treatment, and applicable standards.
Alloy 20 Product Forms and Coverage
Alloy 20 is supplied in multiple product forms to support complete system design rather than isolated component selection. Based on application and service requirements, the material is commonly used in:
- Alloy 20 pipe for chemical transfer and process lines
- Alloy 20 plate and sheet for equipment fabrication
- Alloy 20 round bar for machined components
- Alloy 20 tubing for instrumentation and fluid control systems
- Alloy 20 fasteners for bolted assemblies
- Alloy 20 valves and pipe fittings for flow and connection control
This broad product coverage allows engineering teams to maintain material consistency across assemblies operating in corrosive service conditions.

Why Alloy 20 Is Used Across Integrated Systems
Application of Alloy 20 in fasteners, fittings, valves and piping components assists in keeping all the materials compatible with each other in the system. This helps in decreasing chances of galvanic corrosion, eases material specification and enhances long term service durability in hostile environments.
In complicated installations with corrosive media, the specification of one alloy grade on a number of components also facilitates the same inspection planning, predictable maintenance operation, and uniform performance in the harsh working environment.
Alloy 20 Standards and Material Equivalents
Alloy 20 will be acceptable in the specifications of projects worldwide as it comes in many other international material names. It is typically known as UNS N08020 and is also cited as Alloy 20 CB3 or 20CB3 alloy in casting and specification documents.
Compliance, documentation, procurement alignment In most cases, equivalent material standards like DIN 2.4660 (as well as ASTM specifications like ASTM B473 and ASTM A351 CN7M) are used across regions and industries.
