Alloy C-22 · UNS N06022
A Hastelloy C22 elbow is a fitting that changes the direction of a pipe run, made from Hastelloy C22 to ASTM B366 WPHC22 (buttweld) · ASTM B462 / B564 (forged). Elbows come in 45°, 90° and 180° (return) angles. Long-radius (1.5D) is the default for flow; short-radius (1D) saves space. Buttweld elbows follow ASME B16.9; socket-weld and threaded elbows follow ASME B16.11.

Hastelloy C22 Elbow: Why C22 for elbows
Elbows come in 45°, 90° and 180° (return) angles. Long-radius (1.5D) is the default for flow; short-radius (1D) saves space. Buttweld elbows follow ASME B16.9; socket-weld and threaded elbows follow ASME B16.11. In Hastelloy C22, the choice usually comes down to the medium and temperature — the rows here are the points buyers check for this exact combination.
| Why this grade | Nickel-alloy fittings match nickel-alloy pipe in aggressive media. Hastelloy C22 is picked for mixed oxidising and reducing acids, and weld overlays. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | Chemical processing — Equipment seeing both oxidising and reducing conditions. |
| Welding to carbon steel | A nickel-base filler such as ERNiCr-3 (or ERNiCrMo-3) is used when joining it to carbon steel |
| Matching filler | ERNiCrMo-10 (AWS A5.14) |
| Sour service | Listed in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156-3 within its limits — state it on the order |

Hastelloy C22 Elbow — questions buyers ask
Long radius or short radius elbow?
Long radius gives lower pressure drop and is the default. Short radius is used where space is tight, with a small pressure-rating reduction per ASME B16.9.
Can Hastelloy C22 elbows be welded to carbon steel?
Yes — a nickel-base filler such as ERNiCr-3 (or ERNiCrMo-3) is used when joining it to carbon steel.
Which standard covers Hastelloy C22 elbows?
The material is ASTM B366 WPHC22 (buttweld) · ASTM B462 / B564 (forged); dimensions follow ASME B16.9 · B16.11. Always state both on your purchase order, with the edition if your project specifies one.
What decides the price of a Hastelloy C22 elbow?
The alloy price, the size and schedule or class, quantity, and the testing and documents required. Send your list and we quote the same working day.
Can you supply Hastelloy C22 elbows to NACE MR0175?
Yes. Hastelloy C22 is listed in NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156-3 within its limits; state NACE compliance on the order and it is confirmed on the certificate.
What documents do you supply?
EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2 certificates available on request / as specified in the PO; dimensional reports as required. PMI can be arranged depending on product and requirements, as specified in the PO.
