Hastelloy alloy is a nickel based alloy. It comes in primarily two groups; one with more molybdenum and the other with more chromium. Both are called the Hastelloy. They are all exceptionally resistant to strong oxidizing solutions and have high durability in reducing agents. They are also resistant to intergranular corrosion because of the low carbon content and the less carbide precipitation with welding. The Hastelloy application list is longer. There are different forms and shapes of products manufactured with different standards that are used in a variety of applications. They are used in sour gas wells, waste treatment plants, chemical processing components, pulp and paper industries, reaction vessels in chemical plants, heat exchangers, fans and in food processing equipment as well. The Hastelloy properties are unique in that they are very much resistant to oxidation and reduction; they perform well under cryogenic temperatures and in high temperatures, resistant to wet chlorine gas, resistant to most chloride and chlorine derivatives and so on. The Hastelloy price per kg differs from product to product and you can get a full price list from us. There are many Hastelloy advantages over ordinary metal and other alloys. The resistance to localized corrosion is very high along with resistance to uniform corrosion. The resistance is also good against most salts and brackish waters. The Hastelloy abbreviation is used in the metal industry mostly instead using the full form nickel chromium molybdenum alloys. The Hastelloy alloy composition includes molybdenum, chromium, iron, tungsten, cobolt, manganese, copper, vanadium, phosphorus, silicon and sulfur. Depending on the grade and standards of the alloy, the composition differs. Each of these classes and grades has specific characteristics and applications. The Hastelloy suppliers sell all different grades and the different products as well. The products range from fasteners to pipes and bolts to contour rings. Other then Hastelloy, under the superalloy family many grades are incuding such as Inconel & Monel.

Alloy C276 is one the variations of Hastelloy which is a nickel chromium molybdenum alloy. It has various additions as well. The addition of tungsten provides strength to this alloy.  It is a highly corrosion resistant alloy. The molybdenum and nickel contents provide the alloy with very high pitting corrosion resistance. The chromium content in the Hastelloy C276 UNS N10276 makes it resistant to oxidizing media. The alloy’s carbide precipitation during welding is very less as there is very less carbon content in the composition. The DIN 2.4819 material has the optimum strength, corrosion resistance and the cost benefits among the range of Hastelloy. Therefore it is the most widely used variation. The Hastelloy C276 price is affordable. You can contact us for a full price list. The properties such as the Hastelloy C276 density, pressure ratings, strength, thermal conductivity and the corrosion resistance makes it applicable along a wide range of applications. There are different types of products in this material. The Hastelloy C276 suppliers produce bars, sheets, plates, tubes and pipes, pipe fittings and welding wires from this material. The material has resistance against wet chlorine gas, chlorine dioxide and hypochlorite. It is resistant to corrosion in welded joints as it minimizes the intergranular precipitation during welding. The resistance to reducing agents is significant. The alloy is resistant to strong oxidizing agents such as salts. All of these mechanical properties are due to the specific chemical mixture. The Hastelloy C276 chemical composition has nickel, molybdenum, chromium, iron, tungsten, cobolt, manganese, carbon, vanadium, phosphorus, silicon and sulfur. The material is used in fuel gas desaulfurization systems, sour gas wells, pulp and paper industries, waste water treatement and in pollution control systems. There are not many Hastelloy C276 equivalent materials but other Hastelloy grades can sometimes be used in place of the Hastelloy c276.
