Nickel alloys
HASTELLOY C-276
Trademarked alloy / UNS identity; procurement requires a product specification and condition.
Identity / state reference
What distinguishes this material
Low carbon and silicon support weld-related corrosion performance. Laboratory corrosion plots depend on chemical concentration and temperature, not merely the C-276 name.
- Designation in this reference
- UNS N10276
- Forms covered by the sources
- Plate / sheet / strip
- Bar / billet
- Other forms listed in the manufacturer source
- States to distinguish or confirm
- Solution heat treated; as-welded condition requires applicable service qualification
- Temperature and exposure
- A service-temperature statement is not an allowable stress or a guarantee at temperature. Use the specified product condition and exposure duration.

N10276 · Alloy C-276
Read the scope above: a source’s related product name is not a blanket interchangeability statement.
Property evidence for a stated condition
No condition-specific numerical table is reproduced here
The linked sources establish the identity and the stated product/state scope. Obtain the row for your actual form, section, treatment and test conditions before adopting strength, hardness or a thermal limit.
Resolve these conditions next
- Which product form and governing purchase specification are on the certificate?
- What heat treatment, cold work and test temperature apply to this lot?
For machining, take the exact grade, supplied condition and measured hardness where applicable into the tool maker’s application data. A generic material-family speed is not a substitute for an operation and tool-specific recommendation.
Sources and what they establish
Reviewed 23 October 2026. A source’s publication date and the review date are different. The scope below identifies the fields checked.
Haynes International: HASTELLOY C-276
Specific alloy identity, fabrication and condition guidance; no generic cutting-speed recommendation is imported.
Haynes International: HASTELLOY C-276 ↗Source identity, a named product example and a supplied-batch certificate are different evidence. Cross-standard similarity does not approve substitution.
Corrections from the previous article
- The old wet-chlorine / hypochlorite survival statement is not an unconditional chemical compatibility guarantee.
- Remove the unsubstantiated legacy machinability percentage and speed ranges.
