ASTM B622 UNS N06022 Hastelloy C22 Tubing for Marine and Petrochemical Use
In industries where materials face constant attack from corrosive chemicals, seawater, and extreme temperatures, the choice of tubing becomes one of the most critical engineering decisions. ASTM B622 UNS N06022 Hastelloy C22 Tubing is a high-performance solution designed to thrive in such harsh conditions. At DLX, we manufacture and supply this alloy tubing to global clients who demand reliability, durability, and compliance with the most rigorous standards.
For more details, pls directly contact us.
Hastelloy C22, also known as UNS N06022, is a nickel-based alloy that incorporates chromium, molybdenum, and tungsten to provide exceptional resistance against a broad range of chemical environments. Unlike many alloys that are effective in either oxidizing or reducing conditions, Hastelloy C22 resists both, making it uniquely versatile.
ASTM B622 defines the manufacturing standards for seamless tubing made from nickel-based alloys like Hastelloy C22. Seamless tubes have no welded seams, which eliminates weak points and ensures better structural integrity. This makes them suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature applications where reliability is critical.
At DLX, our Hastelloy C22 Tubing is manufactured under tight quality controls to meet the exact requirements of marine and petrochemical industries, among others.
