G-TECH 2CrMo

The 2Cr1Mo consumables are designed to ensure durability and performance at high temperatures, up to 600 °C. These materials are widely used in steam power plants, essential for the construction of pipework, turbine casings, steam chambers, valve bodies, and boiler superheaters. Additionally, they are used in refineries for their resistance to corrosion caused by sulfur-containing crude oil, effectively operating at temperatures between 250 and 450 °C. In the chemical and petrochemical industry, these materials are crucial for resisting hydrogen attack. They are employed in the manufacture of hydrocrackers, coal liquefaction plants, and NH₃ pressure vessels operating up to 450 °C. Under welding conditions, the materials offer deposits with a hardness of 300 HV, ideal for build-up or hardfacing, metal-to-metal wear resistance, heavy impact, and repairs of P20 tool steel. A minimum preheat and interpass temperature of 250 °C is recommended, increased up to 300 °C for sections of considerable thickness, maintaining the temperature throughout the welding cycle and subsequently. Unless otherwise specified, it is imperative to perform post-weld heat treatment (PWHT), generally carried out at 690 °C, with duration varying based on the section thickness.
