Alchrome (Iron-Chromium-Aluminum) FeCrAl Electric Resistance Heating Elements
by alloy
This post shows the complete insight of FeCrAl based resistance heating elements, their applications, benefits and technical data.
FeCrAl or iron-chromium-aluminum alloy heating element grades are made by modifying the chromium and aluminum contents. They are excessively resistant to sulfiding, carburizing and oxidizing conditions at the very high temperatures. FeCrAl is an economical alternative to Nichrome providing prolong performance. It offers enhanced service and doesn’t need regular maintenance. The regular service temperature goes as high as up to 1400oC. FeCrAl heating alloys are resistant to steams, halogens, sulfur, salts and oxide attack at the elevated temperatures.
