Hydrogen Induced Cracking Test Tanks

Cortest offers a variety of different Hydrogen Induced Cracking (HIC) test tank designs that can be used to study the corrosive and embrittling effects on a metal sample in a hydrogen enriched aqueous environment. Available in rectangular and cylindrical models, these HIC tanks are suitable for samples specified in NACE TM0284 as well as 3 or 4 point bend fixtures specified in both NACE TM0177 and ASTM G39. Each model can be designed to accommodate any desired volume. HIC tanks are typically used for ambient pressures and temperatures but these can be provided with environmental control coils to allow testing from 0°C to 40°C.
