Internal Roll Extrusion: The starting hollow is placed inside a onepiece, cylindrical die ring. The rollers inside the starting hollow are displaced radially outward until they bite into the inside diameter of the hollow surface a controlled amount. The hollow outside diameter remains constant while the rollers produce a thinner wall with a corresponding increase in I.D. and hollow length in a single pass Starting Blank.180 External Roll Extrusion: External roll extrusion utilizes a mandrel over which the hollow is placed. Two (2) annular die rings are brought into position on the hollow. The mandrel and hollow are rotated while the die rings progress axially through a series of passes. This simultaneously reduces wall thickness and O.D. while the hollow grows in length.

Bend, elbows and fittings in heat- and corrosion-resistant alloys are available from specialist manufacturers. 16

18 Forming of Tube and Pipe All common forming operations such as bending, coiling and expanding can readily be performed on tube and pipe made by Special Metals. In general, material in the condition is recommended. MONEL alloy 400, Nickel 200 and Nickel 201 can be formed in the stress-relieved temper. However, the amount of deformation will be limited by the higher tensile strength and lower ductility. In bending, the minimum radius to which stress-relieved tubing can be bent is 25-50% greater than for tubing of the same size. Bending and Coiling Standard methods of bending include ram or press bending, roll bending, stationary-die bending, and rotating-die bending. Tubing and pipe of the MONEL, INCONEL and INCOLOY alloys are readily bent by any of these procedures. An important precaution to observe in all bending is to allow maximum radii to ensure that applied stresses are as evenly distributed as possible. The minimum radii to which nickel alloy tubing can be bent by various methods are given in the table on this page which should be used as a guide to general limitations. Depending on equipment design, tube size and quality of the finished bend, it is possible to bend to smaller radii than those listed. However, when smaller radii are necessary, trial bends should be made to determine if the desired bend is possible. Bending with Mandrels or Fillers Thin-wall tubing may be bent to small radii without wrinkling by use of a mandrel or filler. Thin-wall tubing in high nickel alloys may be mandrel-bent through 180 degrees to a minimum radius of 2D. To minimize galling of the inside surface of the tube, mandrels should be made of hard alloy bronze rather than steel. Steel mandrels may be used but should be chromium plated to reduce galling. Mandrels must be lubricated before use. Lubricants of extreme-pressure, chlorinated oil are best for severe bending. For less severe bending or for ease of removal, water-soluble lubricants are used. Any of the standard filler materials such as sand, resin, and low-melting-point alloys may be used. Sand is the least desirable because it is difficult to pack tightly and can lead to the formation of wrinkles or kinks during bending. Low-melting-alloy fillers produce the best bends. Their expansion characteristics ensure that voids are eliminated and a sound center is created. Alloy fillers are removed by heating the bent tube in steam or hot water. Metallic fillers must not be removed by direct torch heating since they contain elements such as lead, tin, and bismuth which will embrittle the highnickel alloys at elevated temperatures. It is imperative that all traces of metallic fillers are removed before fabrication and service. Bending without Mandrels or Fillers In bending with no internal support, the dies should be slightly smaller than those used with a mandrel or filler. Bending without use of a mandrel or filler is suitable only for tube and pipe that have a wall thickness greater than 7% of the outside diameter, or for bends of large radii. Nickel alloy tube in sizes within the above ratio can be bent with no mandrel or filler to a minimum mean radius three times the outside diameter of the tube (3D) through 180 degrees.

19 Forming of Tube and Pipe (continued) Press Bending Press or ram bending, in which the tube is held by two supporting dies and a force is applied between the dies (see Figure 1), is normally used only for heavy-wall tubing where some flattening is tolerable. This method does not provide close tolerances and is applicable only to large radius bends. The bend is limited to 120 degrees, and the radius of the bend should not be less than six times the outside diameter of the tube. A filler material should be used if bends of radii less than 6 x OD are to be made. Pressure blocks used in press bending should be at least twice the outside diameter of the tube in length. Press bending with wing dies is used for unfilled, thin-wall, large-diameter tube. Annealed tubing is not always preferred for press bending. Annealed tubing of low base hardness does not have sufficient stiffness to withstand deformation without excessive flattening. Consequently, nickel and the MONEL nickelcopper alloys are usually press bent in the stressrelieved temper. The chromium-containing INCOLOY and INCONEL alloys have higher mechanical properties in the condition than nickel and the nickel-copper alloys and should be press-bent in the temper. Ideally, the choice of temper for a specific bend is determined by several trial bends. Roll Bending Roll bending (Figure 2) is the principal method of producing helical coils, spirals, and circular configurations since an included angle of 360 degrees can be obtained. Bending may be done on either unfilled or filled tube. The minimum bend radius for unfilled tube is approximately six times the outside diameter of the tube. Stationary-die Bending Stationary-die bending (Figure 3) utilizes a stationary bending die and a movable pressure die. This method is not suitable for thin-wall tubing and is generally used with no mandrel support. Stationary-die bending can produce bend radii down to 2¹ ₂ x OD but is normally used only for large-radius bends. The maximum included angle that can be produced is 180 degrees. Rotating-die Bending Rotating-die bending is the most common bending process and is the preferred method for bending nickel alloy tube. The process is similar to stationary-die bending except that the bending die revolves and the wiper block remains stationary. Rotating-die bending machines may have either a fixed wiper block (Figure 4) or a sliding wiper block (Figure 5). The sliding wiper block is preferred because it distributes the applied stresses more evenly.

20 Tubing can be bent as much as 180 degrees with a minimum radius of 2 x OD by rotary bending. Although bending can be done without a mandrel, a mandrel is generally preferred and must be used when the ratio of tube diameter to wall thickness is above the limit suitable for bending without wrinkling or collapsing of the tube. Various types of mandrel are used including ball and straightplug types. Expanding Heat-exchanger Tube Tubing of the MONEL, INCONEL and INCOLOY alloys can be expanded into tube sheets by any conventional method. Some design factors which must be taken into consideration in expanding or rolling tubing include thickness of the tube sheet, wall thickness of the tube, tube spacing or ligament between tube-sheet holes, rolling practice, clearance between tube and hole, and the relative hardnesses of the tubes and tube sheets. If an unfamiliar design is being used, trial tests should be performed to determine if difficulties may be encountered in expanding. The oversize allowance on tube-sheet holes to the nominal outside diameter of the tube should be kept to a minimum. The tube-sheet hole should be to in (0.10 to 0.20 mm) larger than the nominal outside diameter of the tube for tubing less than 1¹ ₂ in (38 mm) OD. For larger tubing the oversize-allowance should be to in (0.23 to 0.25 mm). Procedure Expanding may be done by drifting with sectional expanders or, preferably, by rolling with threeroll expanders. The ends of rolled-in tubing are flared in the conventional manner. The tube-sheet hole and both the outside and inside surfaces of the tube must be free of all matter such as oxide, dirt and oil. The ends of the tube should also be deburred before rolling. Lubrication should be provided between the rollers of the tool and the inside surface of the tube. Any sulfur-free mineral oil or lard oil, either diluted or straight, may be used. Lubricants that contain embrittling or contaminating elements such as sulfur or lead should be avoided because of the difficulty of cleaning the finished assembly. Material Temper The tube sheet should be harder than the tube being rolled into it, otherwise springback in the tube may be greater than in the tube sheet, causing a gap between the two when the expanding tool is removed. For that reason, tube sheets are usually supplied in the as-rolled or as-forged temper and tube in the temper. It is particularly important for the tube sheet to be harder than the tube when the sheet is thinner than the outside diameter of the tube or when the tubes are closely spaced. Tubes are closely spaced when the tube-sheet ligament is less than the greater of 25% of the outside diameter or ¹ ₄ in (6 mm). Stress-relieved tubing may be slightly harder than the tube sheet but can be expanded to form a satisfactory connection if greater care is exercised in expanding. For greater assurance of pressure tightness, a seal weld may be placed around the end of the tube after expanding. The stressrelieved temper is suitable for either welding or silver brazing. If rolling of stress-relieved tube appears to be a marginal operation, the problem can often be remedied by using tube or stressrelieved tube with the ends. Stressrelieved, end- tubing combines the strength advantage of stress-relieved material with the ease of fabrication of material. Tubing in the condition is used when optimum rolling or expanding characteristics are desired or when severe cold-bending and flaring are to be done. Miscellaneous Forming Operations Flanging, bulging, swaging, and other expanding or reducing operations can be readily performed on tube and pipe of the high-nickel alloys. Many such operations are variations of those discussed in this section, and comments made on specific operations will also apply to the variations. Extremely severe or complex forming operations may require that the material be given one or more intermediate anneals to prevent rupturing from excessive cold work. Controlled rolling equipment should be used to prevent over-expanding the tubes. Over-expanding may distort the tube sheet and plastically deform the tube-sheet ligaments, causing loosefitting tubes. This is particularly true when the tube has a higher hardness than the tube sheet or a significantly higher work-hardening rate. 19

21 Welding and Fabrication For many applications, the corrosion- and heat-resistant tubular products have to be fabricated and welded. The MONEL, INCONEL and INCOLOY alloy products are amenable to these processes. Full details on processes and techniques can be obtained from our website, or from any of our offices listed on the back of this publication. Matched composition welding electrodes and filler metals are available for many of the tubular products. The main examples are listed below.

However, throughout the tubing and pipe industry, Barlow s Formula is commonly used to estimate the theoretical internal bursting and working pressures of tubing. Using this formula, reasonable estimated burst pressures can be calculated. Yield pressures can be estimated as well by substituting Y (yield strength of material, psi) for S in the formula. A reasonable working pressure is derived by dividing the estimated burst pressure by 4, yielding a 4 to 1 safety factor margin. Simply stated, Barlow s Formula is: P = 2 St / D 26 Where: P = Burst Pressure, psi S = Tensile strength of material, psi t = Wall thickness, inches D = Outside diameter, inches
