ASTM EN GB JIS Standard Hastelloy C276 Bright Polished Bar Hot
Rolled and Forged Round Bars
Hastelloy C276 bright polished round bars stand as a pinnacle of
high-performance nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloys, engineered to
excel in the most demanding industrial environments. Combining
exceptional corrosion resistance, robust mechanical strength, and
consistent dimensional precision, these hot-rolled and forged bars
meet global standards including ASTM, EN, GB, and JIS, making them
a preferred choice across critical sectors worldwide.
Core Properties and Performance Advantages
At the heart of Hastelloy C276’s superiority lies its meticulously
balanced chemical composition. Dominated by nickel (balance
content), it integrates 14.5-16.5% chromium, 15.0-17.0% molybdenum,
3.0-4.5% tungsten, and 4.0-7.0% iron, with strict limits on carbon
(0.02% max) and cobalt (2.5% max) . This formulation delivers
unparalleled resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and
stress-corrosion cracking in both oxidizing and reducing media—from
sulfuric acid in chemical plants to chloride-rich marine
environments .
High-temperature stability further distinguishes these bars, which
maintain structural integrity up to 1040°C. With a density of 8.89
g/cm³ and modulus of elasticity of 205 GPa, they offer a rare
combination of ductility and strength: annealed bars achieve 455
MPa yield strength and 842 MPa tensile strength with 40%
elongation, while cold-worked variants reach up to 1724 MPa yield
strength . The bright polished finish enhances these properties by
eliminating surface imperfections that could initiate corrosion,
ensuring long-term performance in harsh conditions.
Global Standards Compliance
Adherence to international standards guarantees consistency and
interoperability across projects. The table below outlines key
specifications:
| Standard System | Relevant Grade | Key Specification | Dimensional Tolerance |
