Description

UGIALLOY® 686 filler wire contains high quantities of chromium, molybdenum and tungsten, enabling it to be used for welds or claddings that are more resistant to corrosion and/or oxidation than the majority of nickel-based grades in many highly corrosive environments (chemical, waste treatment, fertilizers, etc.). For example, its general corrosion resistance in very harsh aqueous environments is considered higher than that of Alloy 59 (which is itself much higher than that of alloy 625).


UGIALLOY® 686 is used for the homogenous welding of UNS N06686 and to weld many Ni-Cr-Mo alloys with a low C content and fewer alloying elements than UNS N06686, as well as for welding superaustenitic and super-duplex stainless steels.

Finally, UGIALLOY® 686 is used for coating steels or stainless steels to improve corrosion and/or oxidation resistance in very harsh environments (for example for incinerator parts).
