Product Overview

What are Hastelloy B2 Bolts?

Hastelloy B2 bolts are nickel-molybdenum alloy fasteners manufactured from UNS N10665 bar stock conforming to ASTM B335. The alloy’s exceptionally high molybdenum content (26-30%) delivers outstanding resistance to reducing acids – particularly hydrochloric acid at all concentrations and temperatures – making it one of the most chemically aggressive-environment fastener materials available.

Hastelloy B2 bolts provide a minimum tensile strength of 760 MPa in the annealed condition through solid-solution strengthening. The alloy is specified for reactor closures, heat exchanger flanges, and chemical process piping where hydrochloric, sulfuric, and phosphoric acid environments would rapidly destroy stainless steel or even other nickel alloys. Low carbon and silicon content minimises grain boundary carbide precipitation, preserving corrosion resistance in the heat-affected zone of welded assemblies.

Material Chemistry

Hastelloy B2 Chemical Composition

Hastelloy B2 Bolts derive their exceptional acid corrosion resistance from a precisely controlled nickel-molybdenum-chromium composition per ASTM. High molybdenum and tungsten content suppresses pitting and reducing-acid attack; ultra-low carbon (0.01% max) eliminates sensitization risk in welded assemblies. Full elemental composition is certified in the EN 10204 MTC supplied with every Hastelloy B2 bolts order from RealBolt.

Why Hastelloy B2 Alloy Composition Matters for Bolts

Mo (26–30%) — Unmatched Reducing Acid Resistance
The ultra-high molybdenum content is the defining characteristic of Hastelloy B2. It provides exceptional resistance to hydrochloric acid at all concentrations up to the boiling point — a performance level no other commercially available alloy can match. This makes B2 bolts the default specification for HCl reactor and distillation column flanges.
Ultra-Low C & Si — Grain Boundary Stability
Carbon is held to 0.02% max and silicon to 0.10% max. These ultra-low levels prevent the formation of molybdenum-rich carbide and silicide precipitates at grain boundaries during fabrication and welding, which were the primary cause of intergranular corrosion failures in the predecessor alloy Hastelloy B. B2 bolts retain full corrosion resistance in the as-welded condition.
Nickel-Dominant Matrix — Structural Integrity in Reducing Environments
The nickel-dominant matrix (65% min) provides the ductility and toughness needed for reliable bolt preload retention under thermal cycling. Unlike iron-based alloys, the Ni-Mo matrix does not embrittle in concentrated reducing acid service, ensuring consistent clamping force throughout the service life of the joint.

?? Anti-galling: Use nickel-based anti-seize (Molykote P-37 or equivalent). Lubricated values assume K=0.15. Never use copper-based anti-seize on nickel-molybdenum alloys - galvanic incompatibility accelerates thread corrosion in acid service.

Industry Applications

Hastelloy B2 Bolts Applications — Industries & End Uses

Hastelloy B2 Bolts from RealBolt are specified across chemical processing, pharmaceutical, oil and gas, and FGD where excellent corrosion resistance and 800 MPa tensile strength are required for reliable fastener performance. Click each industry below for detailed application examples. Select an industry below to see specific Hastelloy B2 bolts application details and RealBolt stock availability.
Hastelloy B2 stud bolts and hex bolts are the primary specification for flanged closures on HCl synthesis reactors, hydrochloric acid distillation columns, and acid storage tank nozzle connections. The alloy withstands HCl at all concentrations up to the boiling point – a condition that destroys all grades of stainless steel and most other nickel alloys within weeks.
Flange bolt sets for sulfuric acid concentrators, phosphoric acid evaporators, and acetic acid process piping where reducing acid conditions prevail. Hastelloy B2 bolts outperform Hastelloy C276 in pure reducing acid environments due to the absence of chromium, which can accelerate corrosion under strongly reducing conditions.
Hex bolts and socket head cap screws for reactor vessel closures, agitator shaft flanges, and heat exchanger covers in pharmaceutical API synthesis plants where halogenated solvents, reducing acids, and stringent contamination control requirements demand a high-purity, corrosion-immune fastener material.
Flange stud bolt sets for chlorine dioxide bleaching equipment, HCl wash stage piping, and acid filtrate pump flanges in kraft pulp mills. Hastelloy B2 bolts resist the combined attack of hydrochloric acid and chlorine compounds that cause rapid stress corrosion cracking in austenitic stainless steel bolting.

Hastelloy B2 hex bolts are manufactured to DIN 931 (metric partial thread), DIN 933 (metric full thread), ISO 4014/4017, and ASME B18.2.1 for inch hex and heavy hex configurations. Stud bolts for flanged connections are produced per ASME B16.5 and MSS SP-75. Custom thread forms including BSW, BSF, and BSPP are available on request with a standard lead time of 15 working days. All fasteners are supplied with EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificates as standard.
Yes – Hastelloy B2 is specifically engineered for hydrochloric acid service. It provides complete resistance to HCl at all concentrations from dilute to concentrated, including at or near the boiling point. This performance is unmatched by any grade of stainless steel and surpasses most other nickel alloys in purely reducing acid environments. Hastelloy B2 bolts are routinely specified for HCl reactor flanges, distillation column closures, and acid storage nozzle connections operating continuously at temperatures up to 120°C in concentrated HCl.
Always use a nickel-based anti-seize compound such as Molykote P-37, Jet-Lube KOPR-KOTE Pure Nickel, or Bostik Never-Seez Pure Nickel. Apply the compound to the bolt threads and the nut bearing face before assembly. Reduce target torque values by approximately 20% compared to dry assembly values. Copper-based and zinc-based anti-seize compounds must never be used on Hastelloy B2 or any nickel-molybdenum alloy – the galvanic potential difference between copper or zinc and the nickel matrix accelerates corrosion, particularly in acid service environments.
No – this is a critical application limitation. Hastelloy B2 is designed exclusively for reducing acid environments. In oxidising acids such as nitric acid, or in mixed acid systems containing oxidising agents (ferric chloride, cupric chloride, dissolved oxygen), the alloy’s corrosion resistance drops sharply. For oxidising or mixed acid service, Hastelloy C276 (UNS N10276) or Hastelloy C22 (UNS N06022) bolts should be specified instead. Always confirm the oxidising or reducing nature of the process fluid before selecting B2 fasteners.
