An Inconel 825 cross is a four-way fitting with branches at 90°, made from Inconel 825 to ASTM B366 WPNICMC (buttweld) · ASTM B564 (forged). Crosses join four pipes in one fitting. They are used less than tees because of stress concentration, but save space in fire-water and utility systems.

Inconel 825 Cross: Why 825 for crosss
Crosses join four pipes in one fitting. They are used less than tees because of stress concentration, but save space in fire-water and utility systems. In Inconel 825, the choice usually comes down to the medium and temperature — the rows here are the points buyers check for this exact combination.
| Why this grade | Nickel-alloy fittings match nickel-alloy pipe in aggressive media. Inconel 825 is picked for sulphuric and phosphoric acid service, chloride stress-corrosion cracking and sour gas. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | Sulphuric & phosphoric acid plants — Tank linings, agitators, heat-exchanger baffles in fertiliser and acid production. |
| Welding to carbon steel | A nickel-base filler such as ERNiCr-3 (or ERNiCrMo-3) is used when joining it to carbon steel |
| Matching filler | ERNiFeCr-1 (AWS A5.14) |
| Sour service | Listed in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156-3 within its limits — state it on the order |

FOB / CIF · Nhava Sheva (JNPT), MumbaiInconel 825 Cross — questions buyers ask
Why are crosses less common than tees?
They concentrate stress at four junctions; most designers use two tees unless space is critical.
Can Inconel 825 crosss be welded to carbon steel?
Yes — a nickel-base filler such as ERNiCr-3 (or ERNiCrMo-3) is used when joining it to carbon steel.
Which standard covers Inconel 825 crosss?
The material is ASTM B366 WPNICMC (buttweld) · ASTM B564 (forged); dimensions follow ASME B16.9 · B16.11. Always state both on your purchase order, with the edition if your project specifies one.
What decides the price of a Inconel 825 cross?
The alloy price, the size and schedule or class, quantity, and the testing and documents required. Send your list and we quote the same working day.
Can you supply Inconel 825 crosss to NACE MR0175?
Yes. Inconel 825 is listed in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156-3 within its limits; state NACE compliance on the order and it is confirmed on the certificate.
What documents do you supply?
EN 10204 3.1 mill certificates as standard, 3.2 with third-party inspection on request, plus dimensional and PMI reports.
