Oil and gas

The oil and gas industry requires alloys to provide corrosion, wear, impact resistant, and high-strength characteristics. Corrosion-resistant alloys (CRAs) are needed in almost every type of pipeline and piping infrastructure used in the oil extraction, transport, and refinement sectors of the industry. At Wieland Concast, our unparalleled experience, service, and quality are at the foundation of our success in meeting the demand for alloys utilized in various oil and gas-related applications.

Wieland Concast is a North American supplier of Hardiall® (C72900) produced by Lebronze alloys. Hardiall is an extruded, spinodal hardened copper nickel-tin (CuNiSn) bronze alloy designed for high-strength applications where toughness is required. It resists mechanical wear, galling, stress relaxation, corrosion and erosion, matching the stringent needs of the oil and gas industries. It is non-magnetic and easy to machine into complex components. In addition, it is environmentally friendly, being lead and beryllium free, thus making it a beryllium copper substitute alloy. Hardiall® (C72900) is used in the oil and gas industry in both exploration and production operations thanks to these outstanding physical and mechanical properties.
