Hastelloy C2000 Fasteners are a special alloy for safeguarding chemical process equipment in a variety of conditions, including streams contaminated with ferric ions. They combine the remarkable resistance to oxidizing media of C276 with superior resistance to non-oxidizing environments. Comparatively speaking to the other Hastelloy alloys, it was created to give more versatility. Chromium, molybdenum, and a minor but significant amount of copper were added, and these three elements were increased in content to achieve this (1.6 percent ). Hastelloy C2000 Fasteners now have improved temperature resistance in hydrofluoric, sulfuric, and diluted hydrochloric acids thanks to the use of copper.
Greater adaptability compared to the more common Ni-Cr-Mo alloys was the technical goal when developing Alloy C2000 Bolts. These Inconel C2000 Bolts were created with a high chromium content (23 weight percent), a high molybdenum content (16 weight percent), and a little yet effective addition of copper (1.6 weight percent).
The highest corrosion-resistant alloy, C2000, is created by combining C276’s high molybdenum concentration with C22’s high chromium level. It offers good resistance to both reducing and oxidizing conditions.
In particular, C2000 offers improved corrosion resistance to process streams including ferric ions as well as sulfuric acid.
Advantages of Hastelloy C2000 Fasteners
- Excellent resistance to all acids across a wide temperature range, especially hydrochloric, sulfuric, and hydrofluoric
- Excellent defence against pitting, crevice attack, and stress corrosion cracking caused by chlorides and other halide solutions
- Higher resistance to localized corrosion and outstanding resistance to stress corrosion cracking when compared to C-276
Hastelloy C2000 is primarily used in fasteners, springs, mixer shafts, and pumps. It is a versatile alloy made of molybdenum, nickel, and chromium that exhibits outstanding corrosion resistance in all acidic environments and at high-temperature operating conditions. Different sorts of non-oxidizing and oxidizing compounds are strongly opposed by it. These also show excellent resistance to assaults from atmospheric pitting and crevice caused by halides and other chlorides.
