This comprehensive guide explores the Hastelloy C276 composition, C276 material properties, applications, and why Gangsteel is your trusted source for Hastelloy C276 pipe, round bar, and tubing at competitive prices.

 

1. What is Hastelloy C276?

 

 

Hastelloy C276(UNS N10276)/Alloy C276 is a wrought nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy with added tungsten, engineered for superior corrosion resistance in harsh chemical environments. Developed by Haynes International, Alloy C276 is celebrated for its low carbon content, which minimizes carbide precipitation during welding, ensuring reliability in as-welded conditions. Unlike other alloys like Inconel® 600 or Inconel® 625, C276 material excels in both oxidizing and reducing conditions, making it a top choice for chemical processing, oil and gas, and pollution control industries.

Is Alloy C276 the Same as Inconel?

While Alloy C276 is sometimes referred to as Inconel® C276 (a trademark of Special Metals Corporation), it is distinct from other Inconel® alloys like Inconel® 718 or Inconel® 601. Hastelloy C276 is specifically formulated with higher molybdenum (15-17%) and tungsten (3-4.5%) content, providing unmatched resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking compared to Inconel® alloys, which are often optimized for high-temperature strength.
