Nickel Alloy Grade Data Sheet

Hastelloy C-276

Hastelloy C-276 is a nickel-molybdenum-chromium-tungsten alloy developed for resistance to severe corrosion in both reducing and oxidizing environments. Its high molybdenum and tungsten contents provide strong resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, while chromium improves performance in oxidizing media. The alloy’s very low carbon and silicon contents help preserve corrosion resistance in welded structures, making Alloy C-276 widely used for chemical processing, pollution control, pulp and paper production, waste treatment, acid handling and marine equipment.

Material Selection Guide

When to consider Hastelloy C-276

This guide helps buyers connect service conditions with the typical advantage of Alloy 625. Final selection should consider medium concentration, temperature, pressure, fabrication, availability and budget.

Service Requirement Why Alloy C-276 Helps Common Product Form Buyer Note
Reducing acid environments High molybdenum and tungsten contents provide strong resistance to hydrochloric and selected sulfuric acid conditions. Plate, pipe, tube, fittings and process vessels Specify acid concentration, temperature, aeration and contaminants.
Wet chlorine and hypochlorite service The alloy resists many wet chlorine, chlorine dioxide and hypochlorite environments. Pipe, tube, plate, fittings and valve components Do not apply performance data for wet chlorine directly to dry chlorine service.
Pitting and crevice corrosion Molybdenum and tungsten provide strong resistance to localized attack in chloride-bearing media. Pipe, tube, sheet, plate, fasteners and fittings Check chloride level, temperature, crevice geometry and deposits.
Flue-gas desulfurization Alloy C-276 resists acidic condensates containing chlorides and sulfur compounds. Plate, sheet, pipe, ducting and scrubber components Confirm condensate chemistry, dew-point operation, erosion and deposit conditions.
Waste and pollution-control systems The alloy tolerates many variable and contaminated chemical streams containing oxidizing and reducing species. Plate, pipe, tube, fittings and fabricated assemblies Provide the complete range of expected chemicals and operating temperatures.
Welded chemical equipment Very low carbon and silicon contents help preserve corrosion resistance in heat-affected zones. Plate, sheet, pipe, tube and welding wire Control cleanliness, interpass temperature, filler metal and final inspection.

FAQ

Hastelloy C-276 questions from buyers

Find practical answers about procurement, standards, fabrication and industrial applications.

Hastelloy C-276 is used for chemical processing, flue-gas desulfurization, pulp and paper equipment, acid production, waste treatment, pollution control, marine systems and equipment exposed to severe mixed chemicals.

Yes. UNS N10276 is the standardized UNS designation for Hastelloy C-276. The alloy may also be identified as Alloy C-276, Nickel Alloy C-276, W.Nr. 2.4819 or NiMo16Cr15W.

Nickel provides the stable alloy base, molybdenum and tungsten improve resistance to reducing acids and localized corrosion, and chromium supports resistance to oxidizing chemicals. Low carbon and silicon also help maintain weld-zone corrosion resistance.

YSN128 can quote plate, sheet, strip, round bar, rod, wire, seamless pipe, welded pipe, tube, forgings, flanges, fittings, fasteners and welding wire. Cutting, forming, machining and drawing-based production can also be discussed.

Common specifications include ASTM B575 for plate and sheet, ASTM B574 for rod and bar, ASTM B622 for seamless pipe and tube, ASTM B619 for welded pipe, ASTM B626 for welded tube, ASTM B462 for forgings and ASTM B366 for fittings.

Yes. Alloy C-276 has good weldability and is commonly fabricated using gas-tungsten arc, gas-metal arc and shielded-metal arc processes. Matching filler metals such as ERNiCrMo-4 may be used according to the approved welding procedure.

Alloy C-276 has excellent resistance to many hydrochloric acid concentrations and temperatures. Actual performance depends on aeration, oxidizing contaminants, concentration, temperature and process conditions, so the complete environment should be reviewed.

Please send the product form, dimensions, quantity, applicable ASTM or ASME standard, delivery condition, inspection requirements, destination and service temperature. Process chemistry, concentration and contaminant levels should also be provided when corrosion suitability must be reviewed.
