The magic of Cr30Ni70 lies in its chemistry. The high nickel content provides excellent stability and resistance against reducing media, while the chromium component is the key to its superhero-like oxidation resistance. When exposed to high temperatures, chromium forms a dense, protective layer of Cr₂O₃ (chromium oxide) on the surface, effectively shielding the underlying material from further degradation . This makes our DLX Cr30Ni70 Nichrome Bar a true workhorse for applications involving sustained high heat.
