HC276 American Standard Flange Ball Valve

Description

Hastelloy C276 (UNS N10276) is considered one of the most versatile corrosion-resistant alloys available today.

• Universal Resistance: Exceptional resistance to a wide variety of chemical process environments, including strong oxidizers like ferric and cupric chlorides, hot contaminated media, and chlorine gas.
• Pitting and SCC Defense: Outstanding resistance to localized corrosion, such as pitting and crevice corrosion, as well as stress corrosion cracking.
• Low Carbon Content: Minimizes carbide precipitation during welding, ensuring the valve maintains its corrosion resistance even in the heat-affected zones of welded joints.

Features

• ANSI/ASME Compliance: Manufactured in full accordance with ASME B16.34 (design) and ANSI B16.5 (flange dimensions), guaranteeing safety and interchangeability in international high-pressure systems.
• Exceptional Versatility: Capable of handling both oxidizing and reducing environments, making it a reliable “problem-solver” for multi-purpose chemical plants.
• Full Bore Flow: The internal diameter matches the pipeline, ensuring zero restriction to flow and maximum throughput.
• Advanced Sealing Options: Available with PTFE, TFM, or PEEK seats for chemical compatibility, or specialized metal-to-metal seating for high-temperature/abrasive chemical service.
