It should be noted that the PREN value for MP35N® doesn’t reflect the true
comparative corrosion resistance compared to the other alloys. MP35N® contains
about 35% cobalt. Cobalt is a critical factor in terms of corrosion resistance and
break strength. However, cobalt percentages are not included in the PREN
formula and thus tend to skew the relative corrosion resistance results in this
instance.

ALLOY 316(UNS S31600)
QUALITY SYSTEM CERTIFIED TO ISO 9001
CHARACTERISTICS:
Alloy 316 (UNS S31600) is an austenitic stainless steel that provides good corrosion resistance in CO2 well environments. The 316 stainless steel alloy is
our entry level CRA (corrosion resistant alloy) product for oil patch applications. It contains about 17% chromium, 12% nickel, and 2.5% molybdenum,
which readily enables it to replace conventional carbon/plow steel in corrosive environments.
The alloy offers good resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, but is not recommended for use in H2S environments. Performance in these areas is
often measured using Critical Pitting Temperatures (CPT), Critical Crevice Temperatures (CCT), and Pitting Resistance Equivalent Numbers (PREN).
ASTM Standard Test Methods G 48 is also referenced. It covers the procedures for the determination of the resistance of various alloys to pitting and
crevice corrosion.

Tensile strengths in the order of 205/260,000 psi are achieved through cold drawing. At these strength levels, the wire is ductile and able to successfully
pass the wrap test in the as drawn condition as well as the as drawn plus exposed to temperatures as high as 300°F conditions. This wrap or bend test shows
no surface cracking or failure in either condition.

ALLOY 25-6MO (UNS NO8926)
QUALITY SYSTEM CERTIFIED TO ISO 9001
CHARACTERISTICS
Alloy 25-6MO (UNS NO8926) is a “super austenitic” stainless steel offering excellent corrosion resistance in a wide variety of aggressive, aqueous
environments. It contains about 6% molybdenum which along with higher levels of chromium and nickel, readily enables
it to replace the conventional austenitic steels such as Type 316 and Type 317. It also represents a cost-effective alternative to the higher nickel alloys in
some marine, petroleum, and chemical processing environments.
The alloy offers excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. Performance in these areas is often measured using Critical Pitting Temperatures
(CPT), Critical Crevice Temperatures (CCT), and Pitting Resistance Equivalent Numbers (PREN). Data* is available to show superior values for alloy 25-
6MO compared to AISI 316, AISI 317, alloy 904L, and alloy 2205.
ASTM Standard Test Methods G 48 is also referenced. It covers the procedures for the determination of the resistance of various alloys to pitting and
crevice corrosion.
For comparison purposes, PREN and CPT numbers are presented for these alloys:

The chemical balance (and especially the 25% nickel and the 0.20% nitrogen contents) provides significantly better resistance to chloride-ion stress
corrosion cracking than lower nickel alloys such as AISI 317 stainless steel. This is illustrated quite well by the Copson U-Curve in the INCO publication
IAI-46-3.
The alloy 25-6MO wire produces higher mechanical properties than AISI 316L. Tensile strengths in the order of 210/250,000 psi are achieved through
cold drawing. At these strength levels, the wire is ductile and able to successfully pass the wrap test in the as drawn condition as well as the as drawn
plus exposed to temperatures as high as 400°F conditions. This wrap or bend test shows no surface cracking or failure.
Alloy 25-6MO is also identified as UNS N08926. Wire products are covered by ASTM B649. A number of other commercially available alloy designations
are related to alloy 25-6MO through the UNS N08926 designation or through published chemistry ranges. These alternate designations or trademarks
include:
_ INCO® alloy 25-6MO (trademark of Special Metals Corporation)
_ GD31MO (trademark of Greening Donald)
_ SUPA 75 (trademark of Bridon)
_ Cronifer® 1925hMo (trademark of Krupp VDM)
_ AL6XN (trademark of Allegheny Ludlum Corporation)
_ Phy 4529 (trademark of Metalimphy Alloys Corporation)
Through the connecting UNS NO8926 alloy designation, 25-6MO, SUPA 75, and GD31MO describe the same alloy and therefore have equivalent
chemistries. Material produced to the UNS NO8926 chemistry ranges and manufactured into armor wire or wirelines will provide an excellent quality
product.

INCOLOY®ALLOY 27-7MO (UNS S31277)
QUALITY SYSTEM CERTIFIED TO ISO 9001
CHARACTERISTICS
INCOLOY® alloy 27-7MO (UNS S31277) is a new generation “super austenitic” stainless steel offering excellent corrosion resistance in a wide variety of
aggressive, down hole environments. It provides superior corrosion resistance and performance compared to the currently approved 25-6MO alloy. It
contains about 7% molybdenum along with higher levels of chromium, nickel, nitrogen, and manganese, which enables it to approach the performance
of much higher alloyed materials. It also represents a cost-effective alternative to the higher nickel alloys in some marine, petroleum, and chemical
processing environments.
The alloy 27-7MO material contains about 27% nickel, 22% chromium, 7.2% molybdenum, 1.5% manganese, and 0.34% nitrogen. See Table 1 for chemical
composition limits. The nickel and nitrogen produce a stable austenitic structure. The molybdenum, chromium, nitrogen, and manganese content offers
excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion.
Nickel, nitrogen, and molybdenum provide resistance to reducing media while the high chromium content offers resistance to oxidizing media. The alloy
performs well in mixed acid environments, especially those containing oxidizing and reducing acids. The nickel and nitrogen content provides strong
resistance to stress corrosion cracking and also attack by caustic media. The alloy offers excellent resistance to corrosion in seawater, brine, and high
chloride environments. The chemical composition and balance of elements of the 27-7MO alloy produces a wire material which can provide excellent
service in many of the most aggressive down hole environments. It is expected to be an ideal material for the "oil patch".

The alloy offers a unique combination of corrosion resistance, high strength, ease of fabrication, and commercial availability, all at an economical price. It
provides strong improvements over 25-6MO in terms of strength and corrosion resistance with no negatives on forming or wire availability. It is expected
that 27-7MO will achieve tensile strength levels greater than that of 25-6MO. Table 2 compares minimum room temperature break loads for a typical 0.108"
diameter wireline of 27-7MO, 25-6MO, alloy 28, XM19, AISI 316, and MP35N®.

INCOLOY®ALLOY 27-7MO (UNS S31277)
QUALITY SYSTEM CERTIFIED TO ISO 9001
The 27-7MO alloy offers excellent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. Relative performance in these areas is often measured using Critical Pitting
Temperatures (CPT), Critical Crevice Temperatures (CCT), and Pitting Resistance Equivalent Numbers (PREN). Alloys exhibiting higher PREN values are
generally found to be more corrosion resistant than those with lower PREN values. The PREN can be calculated by using several different equations based
upon the chemical composition of the alloys. For the comparisons in this technical summary, the following equation was used:
PREN = Cr + 3.3 Mo + 30 N
When comparing alloys by their PREN value, it is imperative that the same equation be used for all materials to be compared, otherwise, erroneous results
can occur.
PREN values are listed in Table 3, comparing 27-7MO to a variety of alloys such as AISI 316, alloy 2205, XM19, alloy 28, 25-6MO, and MP35N®. Based upon
these values, 27-7MO compares quite favorably to these alloys which are currently being used extensively for armor wire and wireline applications. It
should be noted that the PREN value for MP35N® doesn't reflect the true comparative corrosion resistance compared to 27-7MO. MP35N® contains about
35% cobalt. Cobalt is a critical factor in terms of corrosion resistance and break strength. However, cobalt percentages are not included in the PREN
formula and thus tend to skew the relative corrosion resistance results in this instance. Corrosion tests would confirm that MP35N® is superior to 27-7MO.
As a point of reference, ASTM Standard Test Methods G-48 is noted. It covers the procedures for the determination of the resistance of various alloys to
pitting and crevice corrosion.

Alloys may also be ranked by the threshold temperature at which they begin to be attacked in a given medium. Samples
may be directly exposed to the medium which may induce pitting, or a crevice device may be attached which may
induce crevice corrosion. The samples are exposed at increasing temperatures until corrosive attack occurs. The lowest
temperature at which measurable corrosion takes place is defined as the Critical Pitting Temperature (CPT) or Critical
Crevice Temperature (CCT), depending on whether or not a crevice device is attached to the sample. One test method is
covered by ASTM G48. Method C is a pitting test while Method D is a crevice corrosion test. The maximum test
temperature is 85°C (185°F) as the test solution becomes unstable at higher temperatures.
CPT and CCT values for some alloys are presented in Table 4 and Table 5. It is seen that alloy 27-7MO exhibits higher
values than alloy 25-6MO and alloy 625 and approaches those of alloy C-276.
TABLE 4 - CPT AND CCT PER ASTM G48 TEST METHODS C AND D
Table 5 provides CPT and CCT test results for cold drawn armor wire. As expected, the 27-7MO alloy wire test results fall between 25-6MO and MP35N®.

The 27-7MO alloy wire produces higher mechanical properties than the 25-6MO alloy. Tensile strengths on the order of 220/280,000 psi can be achieved
through cold drawing. At these strength levels, the wire is ductile and able to successfully pass the wrap test in the as drawn condition as well as the as
drawn plus exposed to temperatures as high as 400°F conditions. This wrap or bend test shows no surface cracking or failure.
Strong resistance to stress corrosion cracking (SCC) is one of the benefits of the 27-7MO alloy wire. Table 6 lists five sets of test conditions to determine
resistance of cold drawn and stressed wire to stress corrosion cracking. Table 7 presents the test results and confirms that 27-7MO has a high degree of
resistance to SCC.

ALLOY MP35N® (UNS R30035) WIRE
CERTIFIED TO ISO 9001
Multiphase MP35N® (UNS R30035) is a special quater-nary alloy offering excellent corrosion resistance in a wide variety of aggressive, down hole
environments. It is especially suitable for sour well conditions. The nominal composition of the alloy is: nickel 35%, cobalt 35%, chromium 20% and
molybdenum 10%. The alloy is vacuum induction melted and consumable vacuum arc remelted. Residual elements such as carbon, nitrogen, silicon,
sulfur, and phosphorous are maintained at as low a level as possible. Billets are hot rolled to rod, shaved to remove surface defects, annealed, pickled,
and then supplied for drawing to wire.
The MP35N® alloy was developed as a high strength, ductile material which provides excellent corrosion resistance. It has been found to have
outstanding re-sistance to sour well conditions. The alloy offers excel-lent resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. Performance in these areas is
often measured using Critical Pitting Temperatures (CPT), Critical Crevice Temperatures (CCT), and Pitting Resistance Equivalent Numbers (PREN). Data
is available to show superior values for MP35N®. ASTM Standard Test Methods G 48 is also referenced. It covers the procedures for the determination
of the resistance of various alloys to pitting and crevice corrosion.

WIRE WRAPTOR
FEATURES:
The Wraptor™ is a portable ductility testing unit for performing both wrap-tests
and torsion tests on slicklines cables in the field.
Wrapping a line around its own diameter exerts extreme pressure on the outer fiber of the line.
Reduced ductility is immediately apparent. With the Wraptor, this test can be performed in a
consistent way over and over again, with more accurate predictions as a result.
With the Wraptor, the length of the wire tested can be as much as 1 meter (3 feet) for a .125"
line, and more for a .108" line. The surface area which can be examined will thus be up to a 100
times greater compared with the alternative method of simply knotting the line.
Security and knowledge of the real condition of the wire will therefore be greatly increased and
the risk of lowering a brittle line into a well will be drastically reduced.
The ability to more accurately predict the retirement point of a slickline cable can lead to
considerable cost savings through the reduced risk of facing unplanned production stops, as well
as losing valuable production equipment.
This can also open up for a reduction in net working capital, as less spare equipment would need
to be kept on the site location.
70
WIRE WRAPTOR
Wrap-testing is the recommended method for testing ductility in stainless and alloy wirelines.
Torsion testing is recommended for testing ductility in carbon steel wirelines.
The reason for differentiating the two steel types is that carbon steel and stainless steels
differ greatly in structure.
The isotropic (meaning ductile in all directions) structure of carbon steel makes torsion
testing the ideal method for that product.
Anisotropic (meaning ductile in only one direction) stainless steels are best served by wrap-
testing which exerts surface pressure only in the more suitable longitudinal direction.
