Hastelloy B2: The Ideal Solution for Your High Temperature Application Needs

Hastelloy B2 is a high performance nickel molybdenum alloy with excellent resistance to pitting, stress corrosion cracking and other forms of chemical attack in harsh environments. It is the ideal material of choice for applications requiring high temperature, high stress performance.

At ANTON METAL we specialize in the manufacture of high quality Hastelloy B2 products including Plate, Tube, Round Bar and Strip. Our products are designed to meet the most demanding specifications for a variety of applications in the chemical processing, petrochemical, marine and aerospace industries.

Specifications and equivalents to UNS N010665

Hastelloy B2 is an austenitic nickel-molybdenum alloy with excellent corrosion resistance. It is generally considered to be an upgraded version of Hastelloy B. Its chemical composition includes 26-30% molybdenum, 1-3% iron, 1% manganese and up to 2% cobalt.

The chemical composition of Hastelloy B2 makes it highly resistant to chemical attack by strong oxidizing media such as acetic acid, sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid. It also exhibits resistance to reducing media such as hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids.

Hastelloy B2 has improved resistance to stress corrosion cracking compared to its predecessor, making it an ideal material for high stress applications. It also has a low carbon content, which further improves its corrosion resistance.

Hastelloy B2 is generally considered equivalent to UNS N010665. UNS N010665 is a nickel-molybdenum alloy characterized by excellent resistance to pitting, stress corrosion cracking, and other forms of chemical attack.

The difference between these two alloys is that Hastelloy B2 has a lower carbon content compared to UNS N010665, which improves its corrosion resistance. Hastelloy B2 is also designed to operate at higher temperatures than UNS N010665.

Application of Hastelloy B2

The unique properties of Hastelloy B2 make it an ideal material for a variety of applications requiring high temperature, high stress performance.

The chemical processing industry is one of the main application areas of Hastelloy B2. It is widely used in reactors, distillation columns and heat exchangers to help prevent corrosion caused by strong corrosive and oxidizing media.

Hastelloy B2 is also used in applications such as gas scrubbers, flare systems and desulfurization units in the petrochemical industry. Its corrosion resistance properties make it ideal for use in harsh environments as it can withstand high temperatures and pressures.

In the marine industry, Hastelloy B2 is used in heat exchangers, valves and pumps for seawater cooling, where it resists the corrosive effects of saltwater.

In the aerospace industry, Hastelloy B2 is commonly used in the manufacture of jet engines, where its ability to withstand high temperatures and harsh environments makes it an ideal material of choice.
