Nickelvac HC-276 Nicrofer Forging Blanks / Forging Rings Circle For Marine Engineering
Nickelvac HC-276 Nicrofer Ring Blanks Forging Rings Circle Marine Engineering
Alloy C276, with a high nickel contents, is immune to chloride-induced stress corrosion cracking. The high molybdenum and chromium contents allow the alloy to perform in oxidising, non-oxidising and mixed acids media, whilst exhibiting outstanding resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion attack. The addition of tungsten inhibits the development of pits. Finally, C276 is suitable for off-shore applications where hydrogen-sulphide(H2S) stress corrosion cracking resistance is essential.
In aggressive or corrosive environments when other alloys have failed, many companies have then turned to C276 alloy – one of the most corrosion resistant alloys on the market.
Industries where C276 is utilised are petrochemical and chemical processing, power generation, pharmaceutical, pulp and paper production and waste treatment to name a few.

Hastelloy C-276 Characteristic:
- Excellent corrosion resistance in reducing environments
- Exceptional resistance to strong solutions of oxidizing salts, such as ferric and cupric chlorides
- High nickel and molybdenum contents providing good corrosion resistance in reducing environments
- Low carbon content which minimizes grain-boundary carbide precipitation during welding to maintain resistance to corrosion in heat-affected zones of welded joints
- Resistance to localized corrosion such as pitting and stress-corrosion cracking
- One of few materials to withstand the corrosive effects of wet chlorine gas, hypochlorite and chlorine dioxide
