Rupal Metals stands out as a top-notch manufacturer and supplier of high-quality Alloy 20 Forgings, based in Delhi, India. This alloy is renowned for its remarkable resistance to corrosion, particularly in sulfuric acid environments, making it a go-to choice for the chemical and pharmaceutical processing sectors. We specialize in precision-forged components, including bars, rings, discs, and custom shapes, all crafted to meet international standards and your specific needs. With a commitment to quality, reliability, and speedy delivery, we cater to vital industries such as petrochemicals, food processing, and marine. Our Alloy 20 forgings are celebrated for their durability, versatility, and outstanding performance in corrosive conditions.
Alloy 20 (UNS N08020) is primarily made up of 35% nickel, 20–21% chromium, 3–4% copper, 2–3% molybdenum, with iron making up the balance, and a touch of niobium for stabilization. This unique blend gives it excellent resistance to sulfuric acid, as well as protection against chloride stress corrosion cracking and pitting. In terms of mechanical properties, it boasts a tensile strength of 620–690 MPa, a yield strength of around 300–380 MPa, and an elongation of 30–35%, depending on the condition. Alloy 20 strikes a perfect balance between high strength and good fabricability and weldability, making it a preferred option for critical applications in harsh chemical environments, especially where standard stainless steels might not hold up.
