Hastelloy C-276 Bright Bar

Chemical Composition

ASTM B574 holds nickel at 57.0% minimum and chromium between 14.5% and 16.5% for this bright bar, with molybdenum at 15.0–17.0% as the leading addition. Moreover, tungsten at 3.0–4.5% reinforces the passive film carried by this bright bar, while carbon at 0.010% maximum and silicon at 0.08% maximum starve the grain-boundary precipitates that embrittle welded joints.

Mechanical Properties

The minimum room-temperature values below follow the rod and bar table of ASTM B574 for UNS N10276. Consequently, the ordered condition and hardness basis govern final acceptance of Hastelloy C-276 bright bar.

• ASTM B574 sets one solution-annealed condition for rod and bar at these minimums, and its Table 5 carries no hardness requirement at all. Moreover, clause 1.2.3 reaches cold-worked stock from 6.35 to 88.9 mm, where N10276 sits among the listed grades, so drawn and ground bar holds strength above the annealed floor. Therefore, sour-service orders travel with a per-heat hardness record against the 35 HRC ceiling rather than a mill hardness maximum.

Physical Properties

Published references place this bright bar at a density near 8.89 g/cm³ with a melting range of 1325–1370 °C. Moreover, the nickel-rich matrix keeps this bright bar practically non-magnetic at ambient temperature, which suits instrument and sensor assemblies. Besides, the solid-solution structure holds these values across the whole solution-annealed range.

Meanwhile, the physical properties table on the Hastelloy C-276 material page holds the modulus, the thermal expansion and the remaining design values behind this bright bar.

Heat Treatment

The water-quenched anneal is the specification-defining step for this grade, because rapid cooling after 1120–1160 °C restores the corrosion resistance the media demand. In addition, we supply this Hastelloy C-276 bright bar in whichever condition your duty calls for.

Standards

ASTM B574 is the principal rod and bar document for this bright bar, published by ASTM International, and its scope reaches eleven UNS numbers with N10276 among them. Moreover, ASME SB574 covers pressure equipment while its cold-worked clause governs drawn and ground stock of this bright bar. Besides, DIN 17752, ISO 9723 and VdTÜV 400 serve European and international orders.

Finally, the full standards list on the Hastelloy C-276 material page adds the pressure documents, the European designations and the remaining product documents behind this bright bar.

Surface Finishes

Finish decides how this bright bar behaves across wet chlorine streams, chlorine dioxide bleach plants and FGD scrubbers, and most stock ships solution annealed and pickled so the surface reaches your shop ready for acid service. Specifically, we fix the finish on this Hastelloy C-276 bright bar before the order is released.

Meanwhile, the surface finishes table on the Hastelloy C-276 material page lists the remaining conditions we quote for this bright bar.
