What is Hastelloy B2?

Hastelloy B2 (UNS N10665) is a nickel-molybdenum alloy with Mo 26–30% providing outstanding resistance to hydrochloric acid at all concentrations and temperatures. Chromium is deliberately kept below 2% to maximise HCl resistance. B2 was an improvement over Hastelloy B, addressing sensitisation in the weld HAZ. However B3 (N10675) further improved stability — B2 remains in use where existing specifications require it. Hastelloy B2 fasteners are specified for HCl gas reactor flanges, HBr production equipment and strongly reducing acid service. Governed by ASTM B333 for plate and ASTM B335 for bar. In new designs, Hastelloy B3 is generally preferred.

Chemical Composition

Hastelloy B2 fasteners derive their exceptional performance from a nickel-molybdenum composition, typically containing around 68% nickel and 28% molybdenum, with tightly controlled levels of iron, chromium, and carbon. The high molybdenum content is the primary contributor to outstanding resistance against reducing acid environments, particularly hydrochloric and sulfuric acids at all concentrations and temperatures. Low carbon and silicon content minimize carbide precipitation during welding, preserving corrosion resistance in heat-affected zones while chromium is kept minimal to avoid compromising performance in strongly reducing media.

These alloying characteristics translate into fasteners with excellent resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking in non-oxidizing chemical processing environments. Hastelloy B2 fasteners maintain high tensile and yield strength across elevated temperatures, ensuring reliable clamping force and structural integrity in demanding applications. Their combination of corrosion resistance, thermal stability, and mechanical strength makes them ideal for critical fastening applications in chemical processing, pharmaceutical, and pollution control industries where reducing acids are prevalent.

Applications

Hastelloy B2 Fasteners Applications

Hastelloy B2 Fasteners from RealBolt Engineering Industries are specified wherever corrosion resistance, elevated-temperature strength, or chemical media compatibility is critical to fastener performance. Primary industries and end-uses for Hastelloy B2 fasteners include hydrochloric acid service, reducing media, acetic acid plants.
Hastelloy B2 bolts, nuts and studs are widely selected for hydrochloric acid reactors, absorbers, scrubbers and piping flanges because UNS N10665 resists HCl across a broad range of concentrations and temperatures when oxidizing impurities are controlled.
The alloy is suited to pumps, valves, heat exchanger covers, acid transfer lines and process vessels handling sulfuric, phosphoric, acetic and other non-oxidizing acids where stainless steel and many duplex alloys can suffer rapid attack.
Hastelloy B2 fasteners provide dependable bolting for evaporators, distillation columns and vacuum systems where reducing acid vapors, chlorides and low oxygen conditions demand a high molybdenum nickel alloy.
Use Hastelloy B2 fasteners for critical joints exposed to reducing chloride solutions, acid brines and deaerated chemical streams, while avoiding ferric chloride, cupric chloride, hypochlorite and wet chlorine conditions that can severely reduce corrosion resistance.

Answers for Buyers

Frequently Asked Questions About Hastelloy B2 Fasteners

Browse the questions below to get quick, expert answers about Hastelloy B2 Fasteners — covering alloy specifications (UNS N10665), applicable standards (ASTM B335), temperature ratings, corrosion performance, and how to source certified Hastelloy B2 fasteners from RealBolt Engineering Industries.
Hastelloy B3 (N10675) corrects B2’s sensitisation issue in the weld HAZ caused by Ni-Mo ordering reactions. B3 adds Fe, Co and W to suppress ordering, eliminating the sensitisation problem. For new designs, B3 is universally preferred over B2.
ASTM B335 covers Hastelloy B2 rod and bar. ASTM B333 covers plate. ASME SB-335 is the pressure-vessel equivalent. All solution-annealed with EN 10204 3.1 MTC.
Yes — B2 with Mo 26–30% provides the best reducing acid resistance of any commercial standard alloy. Resists HCl at all concentrations and temperatures up to boiling. CRITICAL: even small amounts of oxidising agents (Fe3+, Cu2+) accelerate corrosion — avoid aerated solutions.
B2 can experience Ni-Mo ordering reactions in welds cooled slowly from 600–900°C, creating a susceptible HAZ zone. PWHT (rapid cooling from 1065°C) eliminates this risk. This issue is absent in B3. All welded B2 assemblies for critical service should have full PWHT.
