In this blog post, we will have an overview of Hastelloy C276 Pipe Fittings and their benefits!
Hastelloy C276 Alloy
Hastelloy C276 is a wrought alloy of nickel, chromium, and molybdenum, and is regarded as the most adaptable corrosion-resistant metal on the market. This alloy is suited for the majority of chemical process applications in an as-welded condition because it resists the production of grain boundary precipitates in the weld heat-affected zone. Additionally, Hastelloy C276 offers outstanding resistance to pitting, stress-corrosion cracking, and oxidizing environments up to 1900°F. Excellent resistance to a range of chemical conditions may be found in alloy C276.
The Hastelloy C276 Seamless Pipes is often used for high-pressure applications where strength is paramount, while the welded version is best suited for low-pressure applications such as piping systems for water supply lines or fire protection systems.
Types of Hastelloy C276 Pipe Fittings
We offer a wide range of Hastelloy C276 Fittings, including Hastelloy C276 Buttweld Fittings, Hastelloy C276 Socket Weld Fittings, Hastelloy C276 Threaded Fittings, and Hastelloy C276 Forged Fittings as they are available in various types Elbow, Tee, Coupling, Union, Cross, Cap, Stub Ends and Plug.
Characteristics of Hastelloy C276 Pipe Fitting
- Hastelloy C276 is a highly sought-after alloy that possesses remarkable resistance to wet chloride gas, hypochlorite, and chlorine dioxide solutions. This makes it ideal for use in applications that involve exposure to such substances. Additionally, it exhibits exceptional resistance to strong solutions of oxidizing salts like ferric and cupric chlorides, thereby enhancing its suitability for various industrial settings.
- Another noteworthy characteristic of this alloy is its minimal tendency towards grain boundary precipitation in the as-welded condition. This property makes it an excellent choice for chemical process applications that require welding.
Overall, the combination of its excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and resistance to grain boundary precipitation makes Hastelloy C276 a preferred choice for a wide range of industrial applications.
Uses and benefits of Hastelloy C 276 Fittings
Hastelloy C276 has found extensive applications in various industries including but not limited to paper manufacturing, petrochemicals, flue gas desulfurization, and sour natural gas recovery. The use of this alloy in evaporators, settings involving sulfuric acid, and machinery utilizing halide or acid catalysts is quite common. The corrosion-resistant properties of this alloy, stabilized by the minor amount of tungsten present and low carbon percentage, make it less susceptible to carbide precipitation during welding and stress-related crevice corrosion cracking in reducing conditions.
