Understanding Hastelloy Nuts: The Corrosion-Resistant Powerhouse

Hastelloy nuts are precision-engineered fasteners made from nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloys, renowned for their exceptional resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking. Unlike standard stainless steel fasteners, Hastelloy nuts maintain structural integrity in environments containing chlorides, sulfuric acid, and other aggressive media.

Key Properties That Set Hastelloy Nuts Apart

• Unmatched Corrosion Resistance: Withstand oxidizing and reducing acids up to 1200°F (649°C)
• Mechanical Strength: Maintain tensile strength up to 160 ksi (1103 MPa) in high-temperature service
• Pitting Resistance Equivalent Number (PREN): Scores above 40, outperforming 316 stainless steel (PREN 26)
• Weldability: Compatible with most industrial welding techniques without post-weld heat treatment
