Incoloy 825 Round Bar
Solid rounds from 6 to 500 mm serve pump shafts, valve trim and machined acid-plant parts.
View Incoloy 825 Round Bar →Nickel-iron-chromium bar and rod for acid plants and seawater service, where standard stainless grades fall short.
Because these two elements govern acid performance, they appear on every EN 10204 3.1 certificate.
For sour-service orders, NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 documents ship with hardness data keyed to each heat number.
Consequently, the 927–1010 °C anneal actually used for your bar is written into the release record.
Incoloy 825 Bar and Rod is supplied in UNS N08825 / W.Nr. 2.4858, a titanium-stabilised nickel-iron-chromium alloy. Because molybdenum and copper sit in the mix, it resists reducing and oxidising acids, chloride pitting, and stress-corrosion cracking.
Southerly Alloy ships Incoloy 825 bar and rod, annealed, hot-finished or cold-drawn to ASTM B425 and ASME SB425. In addition, we cut round, hex, and forged sections to your lengths; every lot ships with an EN 10204 3.1 certificate. For high-temperature oxidizing duty beyond 825's corrosion range, buyers often review our Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT Bar and Rod, the same iron-nickel-chromium family as 825. In addition, the Incoloy 825 material page sets out the alloy data behind the bar order.
Incoloy 825 is a titanium-stabilised nickel-iron-chromium alloy with molybdenum and copper additions that resist reducing and oxidising acids, chloride pitting and stress-corrosion cracking. Southerly Alloy supplies UNS N08825 bar and rod to ASTM B425 in annealed, hot-finished and cold-drawn conditions, with custom sizes, surface finishes and mill test documentation. Sulfuric acid plants, seawater-cooled exchangers, and sour-service oil and gas projects are typical buyers of this bar.
Because molybdenum and copper work together, they handle sulfuric, phosphoric and nitric acid duty.
As a result, high nickel content resists stress-corrosion cracking in chloride-bearing process streams.
In addition, molybdenum raises localised corrosion resistance in seawater and chloride solutions.
Because titanium ties up carbon, welded joints keep their intergranular corrosion resistance.
Incoloy 825 holds NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 approval for H2S-bearing oil and gas duty.
Drawing lifts yield strength well above the annealed minimum for shafts and fasteners.
A single alloy serves acid, alkali, and seawater circuits across one plant.
Every bar ships with an EN 10204 3.1 certificate tied to its heat number.
Annealing, finishing and inspection of every bar follow one written route. Consequently, the dates and documents we quote are dates we can hold. Before cutting, we verify the chemical composition for acid-resistant service and the sour-service hardness requirements against your project specification.
We confirm molybdenum, copper, and titanium targets against your specification before we work the heat.
In addition, certificates, hardness records, and PMI data follow the bar, compiled per heat.
One test bar and a full order run through the same annealed production route.
Mill metallurgists answer acid-duty, hardness-limit, and documentation questions.
We melt Incoloy 825 bar from nickel, chromium, iron, molybdenum, and copper and add titanium for stabilisation. Each heat is annealed between 927 and 1010 °C, then finished to the ordered condition. As a result, chemistry and test results stay linked to the heat number.
We weigh nickel, chromium, iron, molybdenum, and copper to the UNS N08825 window.
Next, we melt and refine the charge through AOD or VOD to keep carbon and gas content within limits.
We then add titanium to target so carbon stays tied up and the bar resists intergranular attack.
After that, we forge and roll ingots to bar section, refining the cast structure as the size reduces.
We anneal the bar between 927 and 1010 °C and rapidly cool it to restore corrosion resistance.
Drawing, peeling, or centreless grinding then brings the bar to the ordered diameter, tolerance and surface.
We remove scale and oxide so the surface stays clean for acid service.
Finally, we check chemistry, tensile properties, hardness, and dimensions before we release the bar.
We produce Incoloy 825 bar in stock and made-to-order diameters and fix the annealed or cold-drawn condition before cutting. The figures below cover the melting, annealing and testing capacity behind that commitment. In addition, we schedule sour-service and acid-duty orders on the same qualified route.
Melting, rolling, annealing and pickling lines share one works.
Specifically, units run hot working, annealing, drawing and surface finishing.
In total, nickel-iron-chromium bar output spans stock and custom diameters.
Moreover, metallurgists review acid-duty and sour-service specifications with you.
Incoloy 825 bar meets NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 for sour service, and we provide heat-specific hardness and chemistry records when your order requires them.
We release no bar until we prove the ordered ASTM B425 requirements on the heat. Because the heat matters, a spectrometer confirms chemistry against the N08825 window. In addition, we record tensile, hardness, and A262 intergranular results where your specification requires them.
We measure molybdenum and copper levels per heat and check them against the ASTM B425 limits.
For the condition actually shipped, we record tensile and hardness results.
We measure diameter, straightness, and finish to the applicable B425 tolerance class, adding PMI where specified.
Consequently, certificates carry the heat number, so incoming inspection can trace any bar back to its test data.
Round bar and rod carry most Alloy 825 enquiries, and each form below now has a dedicated page of its own. Meanwhile, every form is still quoted with its own condition, tolerance and finish route. In addition, we agree the machining allowance with the order.

The limits below follow ASTM B425 for UNS N08825 bar and rod, with iron as the balance of the melt. Because molybdenum and copper set the acid-resistance balance while titanium stabilises the structure, the mill test certificate governs final acceptance.
| Element | Content |
|---|---|
| Nickel (Ni) | 38.0–46.0% |
| Chromium (Cr) | 19.5–23.5% |
| Iron (Fe) | 22.0% min. |
| Molybdenum (Mo) | 2.5–3.5% |
| Copper (Cu) | 1.5–3.0% |
| Titanium (Ti) | 0.6–1.2% |
| Carbon (C) | 0.05% max. |
| Manganese (Mn) | 1.00% max. |
| Silicon (Si) | 0.50% max. |
| Aluminium (Al) | 0.20% max. |
| Sulfur (S) | 0.03% max. |
Values below separate the ASTM B425 minimums from results typically measured on annealed bar. The standard sets one condition for rod and bar; therefore, we agree cold-drawn or high-strength requirements at quotation. Confirm the ordered condition with your enquiry.
| Condition | Tensile Strength | Yield Strength (0.2%) | Elongation | Hardness |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Annealed — ASTM B425 minimum | ≥85 ksi (586 MPa) | ≥35 ksi (241 MPa) | 30% | 200 HB max. |
| Annealed bar — typical values | 100 ksi (690 MPa) | 47 ksi (324 MPa) | 45% | Approx. 75 HRB |
Alloy 825 is not age-hardenable, so any strength above the annealed minimum comes from cold work. Bar for sour service is usually ordered to a hardness ceiling as well as a strength floor.
Typical room-temperature values below support design work rather than acceptance testing. In addition, Alloy 825 stays non-magnetic across its working range, which suits instrument and magnetically sensitive assemblies.

One coordinator keeps your Incoloy 825 order moving from enquiry to shipment. We fix the annealing route before we cut the bar, and the technical team reviews acid duty.
First, give the medium, concentration, temperature, diameter, length, and quantity.
Next, agree annealed, hot-finished, or cold-drawn against your machining route.
Then, price, lead time, and document set come back in one reply.
After that, we record grade, dimensions, inspection level, and delivery terms before cutting.
We then work, anneal, and test the heat to the ordered condition.
Finally, certificates and export paperwork travel with the bar; we confirm delivery terms with you.
Our production and inspection processes are certified to international standards, and every delivery ships with EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificates.
