Where These Alloys Are Specified

The grade is chosen for the service environment, not for what is cheapest or easiest to source. Each application below lists the grades ROBAN supplies into it most often.

Chemical processing

Reactors, agitator shafts, valve trim, piping and heat exchangers handling mixed oxidising and reducing acids. Hastelloy C-276, C-22 and B-2 are the standard choices where both acid types and chlorides are present.

Oil and gas production

Wellhead and Christmas tree components, tubulars, subsea connectors and separators in sour service. Requires resistance to H2S and chloride environments.

Marine and offshore

Pump shafts, propeller components, fasteners and valves in continuous seawater. Duplex and super duplex grades resist chloride stress corrosion cracking.

Power generation

Gas turbine hot section parts, steam superheater and turbine components, and boiler hardware operating at elevated temperature and cyclic stress.

Furnace and heat treatment

Fixtures, retorts, baskets and radiant tubes operating in oxidising atmospheres at high temperature.

Pharmaceutical and food

Pharmaceutical reactors, filter housings, piping and hygienic fittings where cleanability and product purity matter.

Aerospace and land-based turbines

Combustor components, seal rings, fasteners and hot section hardware for industrial and aero-derivative gas turbines.

Electronics and cryogenics

Resistance wire, precision resistors, bimetal contacts and cryogenic components where low resistivity and low thermal coefficient matter.

Acid and pickling equipment

Heating elements, piping, valves and baskets handling sulphuric, hydrochloric and mixed acids.
