PRODUCT OVERVIEW
About Hastelloy B-3 Plate and Sheet
Hastelloy B-3 Plate and Sheet carries the UNS N10675 grade as flat-rolled product. Chromium between 1 and 3% slows the ordered phases, which matters when a lining is welded into place. Reducing acids leave the surface intact, while oxidants destroy it.
Flat product reaches fabricators as plate, sheet, and strip. Above all, welded linings and tray work are where this grade separates itself. The Hastelloy B-3 hub carries the alloy data, and the Hastelloy B-3 Bar and Rod and Hastelloy B-3 Pipe and Tube pages cover the other two routes.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Key Features of Hastelloy B-3 Plate and Sheet
Hastelloy B-3 plate and sheet carries the UNS N10675 grade as flat-rolled product to ASTM B333. Chromium between 1 and 3 percent slows Ni4Mo ordering, which is what a welded lining needs once it cannot be re-annealed. The nickel-molybdenum chemistry resists hydrochloric and sulfuric acid while the stream reduces, and it refuses oxidants. Southerly Alloy works as a professional supplier and exporter of flat product from 4.76 to 63.5 mm plate down through light sheet and strip.
Hastelloy B-3
Lining Stability After Welding
Chromium in the 1 to 3% range slows ordering, so a welded lining keeps far more ductility.
01
As-Welded Linings
Moreover, carbon at 0.01% maximum lets most welded work enter service without a further anneal.
02
Surface Acid Duty
Hydrochloric and sulfuric acid cause little attack while the medium stays reducing.
03
Organic Acid Range
In addition, formic and acetic media sit inside the working envelope.
04
Chloride Tolerance for Linings
A nickel-rich matrix resists cracking wherever chlorides collect under a lining.
05
Plate Thickness Range
Therefore, ASTM B333 covers plate from 4.76 to 63.5 mm thick.
06
Light Sheet and Strip
Meanwhile, liners and formed parts draw on sheet and strip under 4.76 mm.
07
Flatness Recorded
Consequently, flatness and edge condition go on the specification rather than staying open.
08
WHY CHOOSE US
Why Choose Hastelloy B-3
A welded lining rarely gets a second anneal once it sits in place. Therefore, the sheet has to carry its own ductility into service. That constraint is why most new linings specify this grade.
01
Lining Route Reviewed
We ask how the sheet will be formed and welded, since that shapes the certificate set.
02
Papers for One Heat
Each certificate names the melt, with the anneal record filed alongside the mechanical results.
03
Cut to Your Nest
Therefore, plate arrives cut to your length and width rather than in mill sizes.
04
Flat Product Packed for Export
Faces are interleaved and edges protected, then we quote FOB, CIF, or DAP.
MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Reliable Production For Critical Applications
A lining has to reach one annealed condition across its whole area, so thickness and temperature travel together through rolling. Therefore, the mill quenches each lot before shearing.
01
Slab Dressing
The slab is cleaned and inspected ahead of the first roll pass.
02
Hot Rolling
Rolling brings the slab down to plate thickness at temperature.
03
Intermediate Anneal
A furnace cycle restores ductility before the cold reduction begins.
04
Cold Rolling
Cold mills bring sheet and strip to final gauge with tight thickness control.
05
Solution Annealing
Holding near 1066 °C dissolves any ordered phase that earlier passes left behind.
06
Quench and Cool
The plate drops through the mid range fast, which keeps ordering from restarting.
07
Pickling and Descaling
An acid bath strips the scale so the face is ready to fit.
08
Flatness and Gauge Release
Flatness, gauge, and edge quality sign off before the bundle is packed.

|---|---|
| Nickel (Ni) | 65.0% min. |
| Molybdenum (Mo) | 27.0–32.0% |
| Chromium (Cr) | 1.0–3.0% |
| Iron (Fe) | 1.0–3.0% |
| Tungsten (W) | 3.0% max. |
| Cobalt (Co) | 3.0% max. |
| Manganese (Mn) | 3.0% max. |
| Carbon (C) | 0.01% max. |

Mechanical Properties
Plate and light flat product share one set of minimums, and the table below splits them by thickness band. As a result, the ordered thickness tells you which row applies.
| Product Form | Condition | Tensile Strength | Yield Strength, 0.2% Offset | Elongation | Hardness |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Plate, ASTM B333, 4.76–63.5 mm | Solution annealed and descaled | ≥110 ksi (760 MPa) | ≥51 ksi (350 MPa) | 40% | 100 HRB max. |
| Sheet and strip, ASTM B333, under 4.76 mm | Solution annealed and descaled | ≥110 ksi (760 MPa) | ≥51 ksi (350 MPa) | 40% | 100 HRB max. |
The grade is not age hardenable, so cold rolling is the only route to higher strength. Sheet ordered for deep drawing carries a grain size requirement beside the tensile figures.
Physical Properties
Values below are typical room-temperature figures for design work rather than acceptance criteria. In addition, the alloy stays essentially non-magnetic in the annealed condition.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Density | Approx. 9.22 g/cm³ |
| Melting range | Approx. 1370–1418 °C |
| Modulus of elasticity | Approx. 216 GPa |
| Modulus of rigidity | Approx. 83 GPa |
| Thermal conductivity at 20 °C | Approx. 11.2 W/m·K |
| Electrical resistivity at 20 °C | Approx. 1.37 µΩ·m |
| Thermal expansion, 25–100 °C | Approx. 10.6 µm/m·K |
| Magnetic behaviour | Essentially non-magnetic in the annealed condition |

Surface Finishes
A face finish decides how well a lining cleans and how long it holds. In short, we agree it with the order rather than assume a default.
| Surface Condition | Typical Use |
|---|---|
| Annealed and pickled | Standard delivery for hydrochloric and sulfuric acid service |
| Hot-rolled and descaled | Parts that will be machined or further formed |
| Cold-rolled, bright finish | Uniform face for vessel internals and visible panels |
