What's the Difference between Hastelloy B2 & Hastelloy B3 pipes?
Hastelloy B3 pipe (UNS N10675) exhibits very high corrosion resistance to pure hydrochloric, hydrobromic and sulfuric acids. Hastelloy B2 pipe has poor corrosion resistance in oxidizing environments and is not recommended for use in oxidizing media or in the presence of iron or copper salts as they may cause rapid and premature corrosion failure.
What is B2 Alloy Tube?
B2 Alloy Tube is a nickel-molybdenum alloy that has excellent resistance to reducing environments such as hydrogen chloride gas as well as sulfuric, acetic and phosphoric acids. Hastelloy B-2 Tube is resistant to pure sulfuric acid and a variety of non-oxidizing acids.

What is the density of Hastelloy B2 Tube?
B2 Alloy, Hastelloy B-2 Alloy Tube - Physical and Mechanical Properties. Room Temperature Physical Properties: Density: 9.22 g/cm3. Specific Heat: 373 J/kg⋅K.
What is the difference between Hastelloy B2 Tube and C276 Alloy Tube?
Hastelloy B2 Tube has excellent corrosion resistance in reducing environments and is suitable for hydrochloric and sulfuric acid applications. Hastelloy C276 Tube provides excellent protection in extremely corrosive and oxidizing environments and can withstand temperatures up to 1,370°C.
