Short Description:

HAYNES 242 alloy (UNS N10242) is an age-hardenable nickel-molybdenum chromium alloy which derives its strength from a long-range ordering reaction upon aging. It has tensile and creep strength properties up to 1200 – 1300°F (649 – 704°C) which are as much as double those for solid solution strengthened alloys, but with high ductility in the aged condition. The thermal expansion characteristics of 242 alloy are much lower than those for most other alloys, and it has very good oxidation resistance up to 1500°F (816°C). Other attractive features include excellent low cycle fatigue properties, very good thermal stability, and resistance to high-temperature fluorine and fluoride environments.  HAYNES® 244® alloy has been developed as an upgrade from 242 alloy, with enhanced tensile and creep properties up to 1400°F (760°C), as well as a lower coefficient of thermal expansion.
HAYNES 242 alloy is produced in the form of reforge billet, bar, plate, sheet, and wire welding products, all in various sizes. Other forms may be produced upon request.
