Brian Fasteners in Houston, USA, makes Haynes 242 bars and rods known for their low thermal expansion and strong creep resistance. They achieve dimensional accuracy and metallurgical consistency through vacuum induction melting, forging, and aging. These rods are valuable in aerospace sealing applications, gas turbines, and chemical plants. Brian Fasteners offers custom sizing, fast delivery, and expert support. Their Haynes 242 bars are perfect for applications requiring precise thermal stability and structural strength at temperatures up to about 800 °C.
Haynes 242 includes about 20% Cr, around 25% Mo, and 5–10% Nb, with Ni as the primary component and trace amounts of Al/Ti. It has a tensile strength of about 870 MPa, yield strength around 620 MPa, and elongation of 25–30%. It resists creep and maintains dimensional stability up to 800 °C, showing minimal changes after heat exposure. Its fine-grain structure keeps fatigue strength strong in low expansion conditions.
Yes, Haynes 242 bars are available in various lengths, typically customized according to the requirements of the customer, and can be cut to specific dimensions upon request.
Haynes 242 bars typically come in standard sizes ranging from 0.5 inches to 10 inches in diameter and lengths from 12 inches to 24 feet, depending on customer requirements.
To maintain Haynes 242 bars, regularly clean with non-abrasive methods, avoid exposure to harsh chemicals, store in a dry environment, and inspect for any signs of corrosion or damage.
Brian Fasteners’ Haynes 242 bars are ideal for turbine engine seal rings, structural brackets, fixture supports, and heat exchanger components. They are also used in high-temperature instruments, engine seal retainers, and furnace supports. Key uses include aerospace combustor ring seals and industrial gas systems, along with technology needing thermal tolerance and mechanical stability. Brian Fasteners ensures Haynes 242 products withstand high cycles and maintain tight tolerances.
