Description

FeCrAl alloys are Iron-Chromium-Aluminium materials specifically developed for high-temperature electric heating elements. They form a dense, protective Aluminium oxide (Al₂O₃) layer on the surface that ensures excellent oxidation resistance, long service life and stable performance at elevated temperatures.

Maximum continuous element operating temperature: 1400C

Electrical resistivity (20°C): 1.45 Ω·mm2 m-1

Density: 7.1 g/cm³

Emissivity in fully oxidized condition: 0.7

Magnetic – Curie point: 600C

Composition: 22% Cr – 5.8% Al – Balance Fe

NOTE: The data above are extracted from the producer (Kanthal) official datasheets.

Genuine Kanthal® material, cut and repackaged by Thermansys.

Key Advantages

  • Very high maximum operating temperature
  • Excellent oxidation resistance in air due to the formation of Aluminium Oxide layer
  • Minimum resistivity increase rate versus temperature (5% at 1400C)
  • Long element lifetime
  • Lower material density vs NiCr
  • Cost-efficient solution for high-temperature applications
  • No spalling oxide layer, do not contaminate the application

Typical Applications

  • Industrial electric furnaces
  • Kilns (ceramic, glass, heat treatment)
  • Heat treatment equipment
  • Infrared heating elements
  • High-temperature coil heaters
