Discontinued (Discontinued) NC2295 Alloy C22 (Hastelloy C22) sheet metal

Description of Alloy C22 Sheet

ALLOY22 is a Ni-Cr-Mo alloy with tungsten and extremely low amounts of carbon and silicon. The chromium content, ranging from 20.0 to 22.5%, contributes to resistance against oxidising media. The molybdenum and tungsten levels provide resistance against reducing media. The nickel alloy resists corrosion in oxidising aqueous environments, including conditions with moist chlorine and mixtures of nitric acid or oxidising acids that contain chloride ions. It also performs against oxidising acidic chlorides, moist chlorine, formic and acetic acids, iron and copper chlorides, seawater, brine and many mixed chemical solutions, both organic and inorganic. The alloy meets performance criteria in process streams that expose it to both reducing and oxidising conditions, thereby supporting extended use in multipurpose facilities.

This nickel alloy resists the formation of grain-boundary precipitates in the heat-affected zone. It is therefore suitable for most chemical process applications in the welded state.

Alloy C-22 should not be used at operating temperatures exceeding 1250° F, as above this temperature harmful phases form.
