ERNiCrFe-13 Welding Wire Supplier for Alloy 690
ERNiCrFe-13 is designed primarily for joining and overlay welding of Alloy 690 (UNS N06690) and similar nickel-chromium-iron alloys.
With higher chromium content combined with molybdenum and niobium additions, ERNiCrFe-13 provides improved resistance to weld cracking and oxide-related defects compared with conventional Ni-Cr-Fe filler metals. It is commonly selected for applications where weld integrity and long-term corrosion resistance are required.

ERNiCrFe-13 is mainly used for welding nickel-chromium-iron alloys such as Alloy 690 (UNS N06690), including joining the alloy itself, welding to steel, and weld overlay applications.
Compared with general Ni-Cr filler metals, it provides a closer chemical match for high chromium nickel alloys.
One of the important advantages of ERNiCrFe-13 is its resistance to ductility-dip cracking (DDC).
During welding of high alloy nickel materials, cracking can occur in the temperature range where the weld metal loses ductility. The controlled addition of alloying elements helps improve weld reliability, especially in multi-pass welding and high restraint joints.
The combination of Cr, Mo, and Nb provides:
This makes ERNiCrFe-13 suitable for critical welding situations where weld quality is more important than simply matching tensile strength.
| Item | ERNiCrFe-13 | ERNiCrFe-7A |
|---|---|---|
| Typical Alloy Match | Alloy 690 | Alloy 600/690 |
| Chromium | Higher | High |
| Molybdenum | Added (~4%) | Normally not added |
| Niobium | Higher stabilization | Nb stabilized |
| Main Advantage | DDC resistance & weld integrity | General Ni-Cr-Fe welding |
| Typical Use | Alloy 690 welding, overlays | Alloy 600/690 joining |
ERNiCrFe-7A remains a popular choice for Alloy 600 and Alloy 690 welding, while ERNiCrFe-13 is selected when additional weld crack resistance and chemical matching are required.
Used for welding Alloy 690 components and nickel alloy joints where corrosion resistance and weld reliability are required.
Suitable for corrosion-resistant welding of nickel-chromium-iron alloy equipment.
Used for applying nickel alloy corrosion-resistant layers on steel substrates.
