View Sample Alloy Digest Data Sheet (PDF)

Since 1952, Alloy Digest has been the leading reference for materials property data on metals and alloys used throughout the world. Featuring graphs, charts and tables, these sheets give facts and figures on composition or characterization, physical and mechanical properties, heat treatment, and machinability.

HASTELLOY alloy B-2 has outstanding corrosion resistance in the as-welded condition. It is an improved wrought version of HASTELLOY alloy B with the same excellent corrosion resistance as alloy B, but with improved resistance to knife line and heat-affected zone attack. Alloy B-2 resists the formation of grain-boundry carbide precipitates in the weld heat-affected zone, thus making it suitable for most chemical process applications in the as-welded condition. This alloy also has excellent resistance to pitting and stress-corrosion cracking.
