Alloy 20 Washers for Corrosion-Resistant Industrial Fastening Applications

Alloy 20 washers are engineered fastening components designed for aggressive chemical environments where standard stainless steel grades fail under acid exposure. Manufactured from UNS N08020 nickel-iron-chromium alloy with controlled copper and molybdenum additions, these washers provide superior resistance to sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, and chloride-induced corrosion. They are widely used in chemical processing plants, pharmaceutical equipment, marine systems, and heat exchanger assemblies where joint integrity and long-term stability are critical.

Alloy 20 Washers - FAQs

Alloy 20 washers are corrosion-resistant fastening components made from UNS N08020 nickel-iron-chromium alloy. They are designed to distribute load evenly in bolted joints while resisting sulfuric acid, chloride attack, and other aggressive chemical environments commonly found in industrial processing systems.

They are primarily manufactured from Alloy 20 (UNS N08020), which contains nickel, iron, chromium, copper, and molybdenum. This composition provides superior resistance to acid corrosion, especially sulfuric acid, making them suitable for chemical and marine applications.

Common standards include ASTM B473 for Alloy 20 material, DIN 125 for flat washers, ISO 7089 for dimensional compliance, and ASTM-based fastener specifications depending on application requirements in global industries.

They are used in chemical processing, pharmaceuticals, marine systems, heat exchangers, desalination plants, and oil & gas facilities where resistance to corrosive media and mechanical reliability in bolted joints are essential.

Look for ISO-certified production, material traceability, compliance with ASTM/DIN standards, and proven export capability. Suppliers like KK Fasteners provide certified quality control, testing reports, and global logistics support for industrial buyers.
