HB3 Hastelloy® Alloy Pipe | Superior Resistance to Reducing Media in Extreme Conditions
✓ HCl Supremacy: Resists 20% boiling hydrochloric acid with <0.03mm/year corrosion rate – 5x longer lifespan vs. B2 in cyclic thermal service.
✓ Thermal Stability: Maintains integrity from -50°C to 400°C (-58°F to 752°F), even under rapid temperature fluctuations.
✓ Fabrication-Friendly: Ultra-low carbon (0.01% max) and controlled silicon (0.1% max) minimize carbide precipitation during welding.
✓ Precision Manufacturing: Seamless and welded pipes with **±1% OD/ID tolerance** and Ra ≤0.8μm internal finish for high-purity fluid transport.
HB3 Hastelloy® Alloy Pipe (UNS N10675)
Engineered to dominate aggressive reducing environments, HB3 Hastelloy® alloy pipe leverages a nickel-molybdenum-chromium matrix (Ni-65%, Mo-28.5%, Cr-1.5%, Fe-1.5%) to deliver unmatched resistance to hydrochloric acid (HCl), sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), and other non-oxidizing media. Certified to ASTM B622, ASME SB-622, and NACE MR0175, this alloy outperforms traditional Hastelloy B2 in thermal stability and fabrication ease, offering 3x the lifespan of 316L in high-temperature HCl and phosphoric acid applications.
