A Ni-Cr alloy with very good high temperature stability

  • 12 PointGood high temperature strength
  • Oxidization and carburization resistant at high temperatures
  • Good corrosion resistance, which increases with the various grades
  • Incoloy 12 point screw features and benefits
  • For technical information dowload an Incoloy datasheet

 

Not to be confused with Inconel, Incoloy 12 point screws are made of a nickel alloy which contains iron and a lower content of nickel. Incoloy is essentially a more economical option to Inconel, yet with more restricted corrosion resistance and temperature limits. Typically, Incoloy is an ideal material for long-term exposure in high temperature environments due to its oxidation, carburization and creep resistance. Incoloy is widely used for its resistance to seawater, brine, sour gas and high chloride environments at elevated temperatures, which make it a popular choice in the oil and gas and power industries. 

The most commonly used grades of Incoloy screws are Incoloy 800, 800H, 800HTIncoloy 825; and Incoloy 925. For more indepth information on these specific grades, visit our specific web pages or contact one of our engineering experts:

 Incoloy 12-Point Screw Features & Benefits

The driver of a Incoloy 12-point screw uses two overlapped hexagon shapes, creating 12-points and a flanged underside. These are also referred to as ferry cap screws or 12 point flange screws. The advantages of this head style include:

  • Higher torque capability compared to a socket head cap screw
  • Lack of recess to trap fluid or debris.
  • As the heads are generally smaller than a hex, Incoloy 12-point screws are often used situations where installation space is tight and saving weight is critical.

The overall disadvantage is the extra cost involved in forming the heads.

The Controversy of 6 vs. 12 point Bolts

There is much debate over which bolt is better. Some say that the more points a nut or bolt has – such as a 12-point bolt - the less chance you have to round it off. And that the additional contact points of a 12 point screw give you more surface to apply load. While the jury is out as to the accuracy of this, it’s the application that should dictate whether the benefits of a 12 point screw out weight the additional costs of making them.
