Incoloy 800H Data Sheet

This consolidated data sheet for Incoloy 800H (UNS N08810, Werkstoff 1.4876) and Incoloy 800HT (UNS N08811) summarises the chemistry, room-temperature mechanical envelope, elevated-temperature mechanical envelope, solution-anneal heat-treatment cycle and ASME Section II Part D Table 1A allowable design stress for the full 800H / 800HT product range supplied by TorqBolt to ASTM B407 (seamless pipe and tube), ASTM B408 (rod and bar), ASTM B409 (plate, sheet and strip), ASTM B514 (welded pipe) and ASTM B564 (forgings). The data here is consolidated from the Special Metals technical bulletin INCOLOY alloys 800H and 800HT, from the corresponding ASTM specifications and from ASME Section II Part D 2023 edition; for the project-specific design-stress lookup at any temperature from 100 deg F to 1500 deg F, see the ASME design stress tables page. A downloadable PDF version of this data sheet is available on request via the sales desk.

The defining chemistry difference between 800H and 800HT is the combined Al+Ti window: 0.30 to 1.20 percent for 800H (gives controlled-carbon creep performance to 815 deg C) versus 0.85 to 1.20 percent for 800HT (gives higher creep-rupture strength for service to 982 deg C).

Heat Treatment (ASTM B407 / B564 Acceptance Cycle)

StepTemperatureTimeCooling
Solution anneal (mandatory)2050 deg F (1121 deg C) minimum1 hour per 25 mm of sectionAccelerated air cool (water-quench on heavy sections)
Stress relief (call-out)870 to 900 deg C1 hour per 25 mmSlow furnace cool

The 2050 deg F solution anneal is mandatory under ASTM B407 / B408 / B409 / B564 for 800H to dissolve chromium carbides, lock in ASTM grain size 5 or coarser and deliver the high-temperature creep performance that defines the grade. Service heat-treatment (sensitisation re-treatment, post-weld stress relief) follows the project welding procedure. See heat treatment for the full discussion.

ASME Section II Part D Design Stress (Selected Temperatures)

The table below lists the ASME Section II Part D Table 1A allowable design stress for 800H (UNS N08810) at selected temperatures. The break point between time-independent (yield-limited) and time-dependent (creep-limited) design typically falls around 1000 deg F for 800H. For the full table from 100 deg F to 1500 deg F in 100 deg F increments, see the ASME design stress tables page.

Weldability Summary

800H welds readily by GTAW, GMAW, SAW and SMAW with matching nickel-base filler. Standard fillers: ERNiCrFe-2 (AWS A5.14) or ERNiCrFe-7 for GTAW / GMAW / SAW; ENiCrFe-2 or ENiCrFe-3 (AWS A5.11) for SMAW. Preheat is not required. Interpass temperature is held below 175 deg C (350 deg F) to limit grain coarsening in the HAZ. Post-weld solution anneal at 2050 deg F is supplied on call-out for fabrications that require maximum creep performance. For the full discussion of welding procedures, filler selection and hot-cracking mitigation, see weldability and welding procedures.

Data Sheet FAQ

Q. Where do the ASTM mechanical and ASME design-stress values come from?
Mechanical envelope values are taken from the relevant ASTM B407 / B408 / B409 / B564 specifications. ASME Section II Part D Table 1A design stress values are from the 2023 edition for SB-407 / SB-409 / SB-564 N08810. For project-specific design always verify against the current ASME edition that the project Material Specification References.

Q. Are the data-sheet values the same for 800H and 800HT?
Chemistry differs (combined Al+Ti window 0.30 to 1.20 percent for 800H, 0.85 to 1.20 percent for 800HT). Room-temperature mechanical envelope is essentially identical. Elevated-temperature creep-rupture is higher for 800HT, qualifying that grade for sustained service to 982 deg C (1800 deg F). See 800 vs 800H vs 800HT comparison for the side-by-side.

Q. Do you supply hot-tensile data on each heat?
Hot-tensile data is not part of the standard B407 / B408 / B409 / B564 acceptance test programme; the room-temperature tensile + yield + elongation results are reported on the EN 10204 certificate. Hot-tensile testing (typically at 540 deg C, 650 deg C and 815 deg C) is supplied on call-out for refinery / petrochemical projects and added to the EN 10204 type 3.1 or 3.2 certificate.

Q. How often is this data sheet refreshed?
The data sheet is reviewed against the current ASME Section II Part D and the latest ASTM B-series specifications at least annually, and re-issued when either source changes the chemistry, mechanical or design-stress values.

Q. Can you supply a PDF version of this data sheet on your letterhead?
Yes. A PDF version with TorqBolt branding and the issue date is available on request from the sales desk; the PDF is signed by the QA-QC manager and dated to track the data revision.
