Proven nickel-chromium-molybdenum-tungsten bar and rod for severe corrosion, chloride, and sour-service duty where standard alloys fail.
Carbon and Silicon Reported per Heat
We print the ultra-low carbon and silicon results that protect weld zones on every EN 10204 3.1 certificate. Therefore, your welders can verify the chemistry before they start.
Solution-Annealed Route Documented
We record the anneal and water-quench route used for your bar on the release document. In addition, the lot number ties every test back to its heat.
Sour-Service Hardness Evidence
Because NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 orders need proof, we ship them with hardness data keyed to each heat number.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
About Hastelloy C-276 Bar and Rod
Hastelloy C-276 bar and rod arrive in UNS N10276 (W.Nr. 2.4819), the nickel-chromium-molybdenum-tungsten alloy with ultra-low carbon. Because its chemistry is balanced, the grade resists oxidizing and reducing acids, chloride pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress-corrosion cracking.
As a Hastelloy C-276 bar supplier we hold round, hex, square and forged sections in solution-annealed, hot-worked and cold-drawn conditions, all certified to ASTM B574 and ASME SB574. Next, we cut every lot to order and release it with an EN 10204 3.1 certificate. Meanwhile, where service needs higher strength at temperature than C-276 provides, our Inconel 625 bar and rod extends the nickel-alloy range.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Key Features of Hastelloy C-276 Bar and Rod
Hastelloy C-276 is a nickel-chromium-molybdenum-tungsten alloy with ultra-low carbon that resists oxidizing and reducing acids, chloride pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress-corrosion cracking. Southerly Alloy supplies UNS N10276 bar and rod to ASTM B574 in solution-annealed, hot-finished, and cold-drawn conditions, with custom sizes, surface finishes, and EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificates. Because of this, chemical plants, pollution-control systems, and sour-service oil and gas projects typically specify this bar.
Hastelloy C-276
Oxidizing and Reducing Acid Resistance
For example, chromium, molybdenum, and tungsten together handle nitric, sulfuric, hydrochloric, and mixed-acid streams.
01
Chloride Pitting and Crevice Resistance
Similarly, its high molybdenum content resists localised attack in seawater and chloride process streams.
02
Stress-Corrosion Cracking Resistance
In addition, the nickel-rich matrix stays immune to chloride-induced SCC across the working range.
03
Weld-Immune Intergranular Resistance
Because carbon and silicon stay ultra-low, welded joints remain corrosion-resistant without post-weld heat treatment.
04
Solution-Annealed Stability
After hot working and forming, a water-quenched anneal restores full corrosion resistance.
05
Sour-Service Acceptance
Therefore, C-276 meets NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 within the applicable hardness limits for H2S duty.
06
Proven Fifty-Year Track Record
Over five decades of service have made it the default choice where failure is not an option.
07
Heat-Traceable Documentation
As a result, each bar leaves with an EN 10204 3.1 certificate that names its heat number.
08
WHY CHOOSE US
Why Choose Hastelloy C-276
C-276 bar earns its place where one stream carries oxidizing and reducing attack at once. Besides, we confirm the carbon and silicon limits, the anneal and the hardness basis with you before we book the heat. Heat-specific chemistry records travel with the material certificate.
01
Chemistry Limits Confirmed
We check carbon, silicon, and molybdenum targets against your specification before we pour the heat.
02
Heat-Level Traceability
We compile certificates, hardness records, and PMI data per heat, and they follow the bar to site.
03
Trial-to-Container Supply
Because one test bar and a full order run through the same solution-annealed route, you see the result before the container.
04
Technical Response
Our mill metallurgists, who set the anneal, answer your acid, chloride, and sour-service questions directly.
MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Reliable Production For Critical Applications
We begin each C-276 bar as a vacuum-refined melt and hold carbon and silicon low to protect weld zones. Next, we solution-anneal and water-quench each heat, then finish to the ordered condition. Finally, we file chemistry and test data against the heat number through release.
01
Charge Compounding
We weigh nickel, chromium, molybdenum, tungsten, and iron into the UNS N10276 window before melting.
02
VIM or VOD Melting
We refine the charge under vacuum or argon to keep carbon, silicon, and gas within limits.
03
Forging and Rolling
We forge and roll the ingots down to bar section, and this breaks the cast structure as the size reduces.
04
Solution Annealing
We heat the bar above 1100 °C and rapidly water-quench it to dissolve precipitates and restore corrosion resistance.
05
Cold Finishing
We draw, peel, or centreless-grind the bars to the ordered diameter, tolerance, and surface.
06
Straightening and Cutting
We straighten and cut the bars to length, and we agree the machining allowance for further turning.
07
Surface Conditioning
We remove scale by pickling or grinding so the surface stays clean for acid and seawater duty.
08
Final Verification
We check chemistry, tensile, hardness, and dimensions against the ordered condition before release.

QUALITY ASSURANCE
Strict Quality Control From Production To Delivery
No C-276 bar leaves the works until we prove the ordered ASTM B574 requirements on the heat. First, we check carbon and silicon by spectrometer against the N10276 window. Then we record tensile, hardness, and intergranular results where your specification asks for them.
01
Chemistry Against N10276
We measure carbon, silicon, and molybdenum per heat and check them against the ASTM B574 limits.
02
Mechanical Testing on the Condition
We record tensile and hardness results for the condition actually shipped, not a generic value.
03
Surface and Dimensional Checks
We measure diameter, straightness, and finish to the B574 tolerance class, with PMI where specified.
04
Heat-Linked Documentation
In addition, certificates carry the heat number, so you can trace any bar to its test results at incoming inspection.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Technical Specifications
Detailed technical information including chemical composition, mechanical properties, standards and available dimensions.
Chemical Composition
The limits below follow ASTM B574 for UNS N10276 bar and rod, with nickel as the balance of the melt. Molybdenum and tungsten set the reducing-acid and localised-corrosion resistance; in contrast, chromium covers oxidizing media and ultra-low carbon protects the weld zones. Therefore, the mill test certificate governs final acceptance.
| Element | Content |
|---|---|
| Nickel (Ni) | 57.0% min. (balance) |
| Chromium (Cr) | 14.5–16.5% |
| Molybdenum (Mo) | 15.0–17.0% |
| Tungsten (W) | 3.0–4.5% |
| Iron (Fe) | 4.0–7.0% |
| Cobalt (Co) | 2.5% max. |
| Manganese (Mn) | 1.0% max. |
| Vanadium (V) | 0.35% max. |
| Silicon (Si) | 0.08% max. |
| Carbon (C) | 0.010% max. |
| Phosphorus (P) | 0.040% max. |
| Sulfur (S) | 0.030% max. |
Mechanical Properties
Values below separate the ASTM B574 minimums from results typically measured on solution-annealed bar. Moreover, the standard sets one condition for rod and bar, and its Table 5 carries no hardness requirement. Therefore, we agree any hardness ceiling with the order.
| Condition | Tensile Strength | Yield Strength (0.2%) | Elongation | Hardness |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Annealed — ASTM B574 minimum | ≥100 ksi (690 MPa) | ≥41 ksi (283 MPa) | 40% | No requirement in Table 5 |
| Annealed bar — typical values | 115 ksi (790 MPa) | 55 ksi (380 MPa) | 50% | Approx. 90 HRB (100 HRB commonly reported) |
C-276 is not age-hardenable, so any strength above the annealed minimum comes from cold work. We quote cold-drawn bar to its as-drawn condition when a higher yield is needed.
Physical Properties
Typical room-temperature values below support design work rather than acceptance testing. Moreover, since C-276 stays practically non-magnetic across its working range, it suits instrument and magnetically sensitive assemblies.
| Property | Value |
|---|---|
| Density | Approx. 8.89 g/cm³ |
| Melting range | Approx. 1325–1370 °C |
| Modulus of elasticity | Approx. 205 GPa |
| Thermal conductivity at 20 °C | Approx. 10.2 W/m·K |
| Specific heat at 20 °C | Approx. 427 J/kg·K |
| Electrical resistivity at 20 °C | Approx. 1.30 µΩ·m |
| Thermal expansion, 20–100 °C | Approx. 11.2 µm/m·K |
| Magnetic behaviour | Practically non-magnetic at ambient temperature |
