1.4749

HuaNickel 1.4749 is a high chromium ferrite heat-resistant alloy with excellent resistance to oxidation, vulcanization, and other forms of hot corrosion. This grade is most commonly used between 1500-2100°F, although it has a fairly low intensity at high temperatures. 1.4749 is the only heat-resistant alloy that can withstand molten copper and brass. Like other high chromium ferritic stainless steels, in the temperature range of 700-1000°F (embrittlement at 885°F). HuaNickel 1.4749 should not be used within this temperature range unless an almost complete loss of room temperature ductility can be tolerated. Sigma embrittlement occurs with prolonged exposure in the range of 1000-1300°F. HuaNickel 1.4749 has a high toughness to brittle impact transition temperature. Therefore, successful forming and bending is contributing to low forming speeds, edge preparation and preheating to 250-400°F. Annealing, if necessary, should be performed at 1550-1650°F, followed by rapid cooling.

1.4749Process performance：

Welding process: Welding can be done using traditional methods. It is helpful to warm up and adjust to 300-600°F. Austenitic weld fillers, such as HuaNickel AWS E310 or E312, are generally recommended to maximize the ductility of weld deposits.
