Alloy C Max HEAVY DUTY

CENTRIFUGAL PUMPS

Wilfley’s Alloy C Max is a nickel base alloy that is specially processed to improve the microstructure and
remove carbides. The improved microstructure provides an elongation in excess of 60% and a 70%
improvement in corrosion resistance over standard Alloy C.
