ASME SB-622 UNS N06022 (HASTELLOY C-22 )SPECIFICATION FOR SEAMLESS NICKEL AND NICKEL-COBALT ALLOY PIPE AND TUBE

C-22® alloy is a versatile nickel-chromiummolybdenum-tungsten alloy with better overall corrosion resistance than other Ni-Cr-Mo alloys available today, including C-276 and C-4 alloys and alloy 625. C-22 alloy has outstanding resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking. It has excellent resistance to oxidizing aqueous media including wet chlorine and mixtures containing nitric acid or oxidizing acids with chloride ions. Also, C-22 alloy offers optimum resistance to environments where reducing and oxidizing conditions are encountered in process streams. Because of such versatility it can be used where “upset” conditions are likely to occur or in multi-purpose plants. C-22 alloy has exceptional resistance to a wide variety of chemical process environments, including strong oxidizers such as ferric and cupric chlorides, chlorine, hot contaminated solutions (organic and inorganic), formic and acetic acids, acetic anhydride, and seawater and brine solutions. C-22 alloy resists the formation of grain-boundary precipitates in the weld heat-affected zone, thus making it suitable for most chemical process applications in the as-welded condition.

C-22 alloy is available in most common product forms: plate, sheet, strip, billet, bar, wire, covered electrodes, pipe, and tubing. Wrought forms of this alloy are furnished in the solution heattreated condition unless otherwise specified.
