Frequently Asked Questions
Q. Is Hastelloy C276 magnetic?
A. No, Hastelloy C276 is non-magnetic due to its austenitic FCC crystal structure and high nickel content.
Q. What is the difference between Hastelloy C276 and C22?
A. Hastelloy C22 has slightly better pitting and crevice corrosion resistance than C276. However, C276 is significantly cheaper and easier to weld and fabricate.
Q. Can Hastelloy C276 be 3D printed?
A. Yes, Hastelloy C276 powder can be processed using laser powder bed fusion and binder jetting 3D printing technologies to manufacture complex components.
Q. What is Hastelloy C276 used for?
A. Hastelloy C276 is commonly used in chemical processing, pollution control, oil & gas, and other industries requiring exceptional corrosion resistance especially in reducing environments containing chlorides or other halides.
Q. Does Hastelloy C276 contain lead?
A. No. The standard composition of Hastelloy C276 does not include any lead. It conforms to RoHS and REACH regulations.
Q. What is the thermal expansion coefficient of Hastelloy C276?
A. The average thermal expansion coefficient over 20-100°C is around 11 x 10-6/ K. This minimizes issues from thermal cycling and stress in high temperature service.
