Corrosion Resistance
Exceptional resistance to hot acids is the single most attractive attribute of Hastelloy C276 fasteners. This nickel alloy is resistant to the following environments from moderately oxidizing to strong reducing conditions:
- Sulfuric acid and hydrochloric acid
- Acid chlorides, solvents, formic and acetic acids
- Acetic anhydride, hypochlorites and chlorine solutions.
- One of the few grades resistant to wet chloride gas and chlorine dioxide.
Also, it has excellent resistance to phosphoric acid at all temperatures below boiling and at concentrations lower than 65%. The only factor that is critical to point out when dealing with strong oxidizing environments is that Hastelloy C276 fasteners have a low chromium content which prevents it from being used strongly oxidizing environments like hot, concentrated nitric acid.
