UNS S35045 Forgings (Incoloy 803 / Alloy 803)
Forged rings, rolled rings, flanges, round bars, discs, sleeves, bushings, tube sheets and shafts, made to drawing by Jiangyin Jiangnan Metal Co., Ltd.
UNS S35045 is the UNS number for Incoloy alloy 803, an iron-nickel-chromium alloy with 32.0 to 37.0% nickel and 25.0 to 29.0% chromium. It goes into petrochemical, chemical and thermal processing plant, including ethylene furnace piping, because it resists oxidation, sulfidation and carburization at high temperature and keeps useful stress-rupture strength. Jiangyin Jiangnan Metal Co., Ltd. forges this grade at its works in Jiangyin, Jiangsu Province, China, and supplies it with EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2 certificates.

Chemical composition of UNS S35045
| Element | Content, % |
|---|---|
| Nickel, Ni | 32.0 - 37.0 |
| Chromium, Cr | 25.0 - 29.0 |
| Carbon, C | 0.06 - 0.10 |
| Aluminium, Al | 0.15 - 0.60 |
| Titanium, Ti | 0.15 - 0.60 |
| Manganese, Mn | 1.50 max |
| Silicon, Si | 1.00 max |
| Copper, Cu | 0.75 max |
| Sulfur, S | 0.015 max |
| Iron, Fe | Balance, about 29.4 - 42.6 |
The aluminium and titanium additions are what separate this grade from plain Fe-Ni-Cr alloys. Together with the 25 to 29% chromium they support the protective surface oxide that the alloy relies on in carburizing and sulfidizing atmospheres.
Mechanical properties of UNS S35045
| Property | Metric | Imperial |
|---|---|---|
| Tensile strength | 572 - 607 MPa | 83 - 88 ksi |
| Yield strength | 275 - 296 MPa | 40 - 43 ksi |
| Elongation | 43 - 47 % | 43 - 47 % |
| Shear strength | 370 MPa | 54 ksi |
| Fatigue strength | 170 MPa | 24 ksi |
| Poisson ratio | 0.28 | 0.28 |
Other published data sets quote lower typical figures for the annealed condition, around 540 MPa tensile, 190 MPa yield and 39% elongation. The spread comes from product form, section size and heat treatment route. Acceptance values are fixed per order and reported on the mill certificate.
Standards and product forms
| Product form | Standard |
|---|---|
| Forgings | ASTM A182 |
| Plate, sheet and strip | ASTM A240, ASTM A480 |
| Seamless pipe and tube | ASTM A213 |
| Welded tube | ASTM A249 |
If your specification calls up a different standard or a national equivalent, send us the clause and we will confirm in writing whether we can meet it before melting starts.

- Ultrasonic testing to EN 10228-3, SEP 1921 or ASTM A388.
- EN 10204 3.1 works certificate, or 3.2 countersigned by a third party such as TUV, SGS, BV or Lloyd's.
- PMI, dye penetrant, hardness survey, tensile and impact testing on request.
Questions we are asked about this grade
Is UNS S35045 the same as Incoloy 803?
Yes. UNS S35045 is the UNS number and Incoloy 803, also written Alloy 803, is the industry name for the same iron-nickel-chromium alloy with 32 to 37% nickel and 25 to 29% chromium.
Is it a stainless steel or a nickel alloy?
It sits on the line between the two. The S prefix in the UNS number puts it with the superaustenitic stainless steels, but at 32 to 37% nickel it is bought and sold alongside nickel alloys such as Incoloy 800H and 800HT. We list it under stainless steel for that reason.
What makes it suitable for carburizing service?
The 25 to 29% chromium and 32 to 37% nickel, with the aluminium and titanium additions, support a stable protective oxide. Published data credits the alloy with resistance to oxidation, sulfidation and carburization at high temperature along with good stress-rupture strength.
What sizes can you forge?
That depends on the geometry and the finished weight. Send a drawing, or the rough dimensions with the standard and test scope, and we will confirm whether we can make it and at what price.
What do you need in order to quote?
Grade, standard, finished or rough dimensions or a drawing, quantity, heat treatment condition, NDT and certificate requirement, and the delivery port. We normally reply within one working day.
Which other grades get compared with this one?
Buyers looking at high temperature service also price Incoloy 800H, Incoloy 800HT, Alloy 45TM, AISI 330, Inconel 601 and Alloy 602. We forge all of them.
