What is Incoloy 925 (Alloy 925 / UNS N09925)?

Incoloy 925 (also known as Alloy 925, UNS N09925, and Inconel 925 in industrial uses) is a great age-hardenable nickel-iron-chromium alloy made by precisely adding of molybdenum, copper, titanium, and aluminum. This chemical formulation make it has high mechanical strength, good resistance to sulfide stress corrosion cracking (SSCC), great pitting and crevice corrosion resistance, and as well as great hot forging fabricability.

As a professional Incoloy 925 forging parts manufacturer based in Jiangyin, Jiangsu, China, Jiangsu Liangyi was established in 1997, with over 25 years of experience in custom nickel alloy forging. Our factory has 2000T-6300T hydraulic forging presses, 5M seamless ring rolling machines, and full in-house testing facilities, with an annual manufacturing capacity of 120,000 tons. Our Alloy 925 forgings are accordance with international standards including ASTM B637, NACE MR0175/ISO 15156, API 6A, DNV, and PED, they can work well in the hardest working conditions. Our clients are across North America, Europe, the Middle East, Southeast Asia, and Oceania.

Main Advantages of Our Incoloy 925 Forging Parts

Our Incoloy 925 forgings made using precision engineering technology are strictly checked from raw material melting to final inspection. They have industry-leading performance even working in hard environments. Main advantages are as following:

Good Corrosion Resistance in Hard Environments

Incoloy 925 offers great resistance to sour gas (H₂S and CO₂) environments, chloride-induced pitting and crevice corrosion, and general corrosion in strong acid media such as sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid. This makes it the ideal material for oil and gas downhole, subsea, and chemical industries where traditional alloys are not suitable.

High Strength & Toughness Without Corrosion Resistance Reduced

With correct solution annealing and age hardening heat treatment, our Alloy 925 forgings can get high yield strength, tensile strength, and great low-temperature impact toughness, while keeping good corrosion resistance. This makes the forging parts can work stably for a long time even under high pressure, alternating loads, and bad temperature conditions.

Good Fabricability & Weldability for Custom Geometries

UNS N09925 (Inconel 925) has great hot forging formability and weldability, so we can produce custom Incoloy 925 forging parts in complicated geometries. Our production range covers small precision forgings from 30kg to large heavy forging up to 30 tons, all forging parts are with consistent and uniform material properties.

Global Uses &Cases Study

Thanks to its unique properties, Incoloy 925 forging parts are widely used in oil and gas, offshore subsea engineering, chemical, marine shipbuilding, power generation, and aerospace industries worldwide. The followings are part of our actual cases for main international markets:

North America Oil & Gas Downhole Tool Forgings (USA Market)

We custom-manufactured Incoloy 925 downhole tool forgings for a leading shale oil and gas company in Texas, USA, including subsurface safety valve bodies, packer core parts, tubing hanger forgings, and drill collar parts. The content of H₂S, CO₂, and chloride is high in the local Permian Basin wells, the traditional low-alloy steels are easy to rapid stress corrosion cracking. Our UNS N09925 forgings are fully accordance with API 6A and NACE MR0175/ISO 15156 standards, they can work stably for over 10 years under 150℃ high temperature and high pressure acidic working conditions, thus can greatly reduce the customer's well repair costs and unexpected downtime.

Europe Offshore Subsea Production Forgings (North Sea Market)

We supplied Alloy 925 subsea forgings, including subsea Christmas tree valve bodies, high-pressure integral flanges, pipeline connectors, and flow meter bodies, for a deep-water oil and gas field project in the Norwegian North Sea. The 1500-meter deep-sea environment has bad hydrostatic pressure, low-temperature seawater corrosion, and cyclic dynamic loads, so strict requirements are necessary on material’s strength, fatigue resistance, and corrosion resistance. Our Incoloy 925 forging parts have passed DNV third-party inspection, with a pitting resistance equivalent number (PREN) ≥ 38, they can perfectly resist seawater chloride corrosion and hydrogen sulfide stress cracking, and have been in stable service for over 8 years.

European Chemical Equipment Forgings (Germany Market)

We custom-produced Incoloy 925 forged parts, including sulfuric acid reactor flanges, stirring shaft forgings, corrosion-resistant valve bodies, valve stems, and pump casings, for a large chemical enterprise in Germany. The production line is constantly exposed to 98% concentrated sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, and mixed acidic media, and with a high temperature of 180℃. Our UNS N09925 forgings are made by a double vacuum melting process (VIM+VAR) and optimized aging heat treatment way, they have uniform corrosion resistance and high-temperature creep strength. Compared with traditional 316L stainless steel, the service life is increased by more than 6 times, greatly reducing the customer's equipment maintenance frequency and shutdown losses.

Middle East Oil & Gas Gathering System Forgings (Saudi Arabia & UAE Market)

We supplied Alloy 925 high-pressure forgings, including gathering pipeline double studded flanges, ball valve bodies, choke valve parts, casing heads, and tubing spools, for onshore oil and gas field gathering system projects of Saudi Aramco and ADNOC. The water from this oil and gas fields in this region has high salt and H₂S content, and the high-temperature desert environments is bad, the traditional carbon steel and low-alloy steel are easy to rapid corrosion and fail. Our Incoloy 925 forging parts meet Aramco material standards, have passed strict NACE TM0177 sulfide stress corrosion tests, keep great stability under high-temperature, high-pressure acidic working conditions, and have been used in many large oil and gas field projects in the Middle East.

Southeast Asia Marine & Shipbuilding System Forgings (Singapore Market)

We supplied fully custom Incoloy 925 marine forgings for a large shipbuilding and offshore engineering enterprise in Singapore, including ship seawater cooling system valve forgings, propulsion shafting parts, deck machinery core structural parts, and offshore platform riser connectors. Vessels and offshore platforms are in tropical marine environments for long periods, facing high-concentration chloride seawater corrosion, salt spray corrosion, and cyclic fatigue loads. Our UNS N09925 forged parts have good seawater corrosion resistance and fatigue strength, no additional anti-corrosion coating required, which greatly extends the maintenance-free cycle of marine equipment, and we have obtained long-term repeat purchase orders from the customer.
