An Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT expander flange is a weld neck flange whose hub increases the pipe size, made from Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT to ASTM B564. Expander flanges step up the line size at a pump or valve outlet, replacing a reducer and a standard weld neck flange with one part.

Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT Expander Flange: Why 800 for expander flanges
Expander flanges step up the line size at a pump or valve outlet, replacing a reducer and a standard weld neck flange with one part. In Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT, 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 flanges are used where acids, chlorides or heat defeat stainless. Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT is picked for furnaces, petrochemical heaters and high-temperature piping. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | Petrochemical — Steam-methane reformer and ethylene furnace piping. |
| Bolting | B7 (coated), B8M or nickel-alloy studs in Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT (bar to ASTM B408, where applicable), as the project specifies |
| 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 | ERNiCr-3 (AWS A5.14) |

Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT Expander Flange — questions buyers ask
When is an expander flange used?
Most often at pump and valve outlets where the line size increases immediately.
Can Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT expander flanges 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 Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT expander flanges?
The material is ASTM B564; dimensions follow ASME B16.5 (flange end). Always state both on your purchase order, with the edition if your project specifies one.
What decides the price of a Incoloy 800 / 800H / 800HT expander flange?
The alloy price, the size and pressure class, quantity, and the testing and documents required. Send your list and we quote the same working day.
What documents do you supply?
EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2 certificates available on request / as specified in the PO; dimensional reports as required. PMI can be arranged depending on product and requirements, as specified in the PO.
