DATA SHEET
25-35Nb
Description

25-35Nb is a niobium strengthened modification of 25-35 (HP) with enhanced stress

rupture properties and weldability. Superior rupture strength is achieved through
utilization of state-of-the-art foundry practices. The Petrochemical Products Group
manufactures several 25-35Nb variations with chemistries and properties designed for
specific customer applications.
