Quick Answer: What Is Hastelloy C-22HS?
Hastelloy C-22HS (UNS N07022) is a nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy that delivers approximately double the yield strength of Hastelloy C-22 (>=540 MPa vs 285 MPa) through a unique thermal-mechanical treatment, while retaining C-22's outstanding resistance to oxidizing and reducing acids, seawater, and chloride environments. It is the material of choice for high-pressure chemical reactors, oilfield components, and heat exchanger tube sheets where both corrosion resistance and structural strength are design limits. Shanghai Hangbo Alloy Group supplies C-22HS as round bars, tubes, and plates.
Industry Pain Point: High-pressure chemical reactors (autoclaves, 10,000-15,000 psi) face the "wall thickness spiral": using C-22 at its 285 MPa yield requires extremely thick walls for pressure retention, which increases weight, cost, and fabrication difficulty. C-22HS — with 540+ MPa yield and the same corrosion envelope — permits 35-45% thinner walls, directly reducing vessel weight and weld volume while maintaining equivalent pressure ratings.

Product Overview
Hastelloy C-22HS was developed by Haynes International to combine the corrosion resistance of C-22 with structural strength approaching that of precipitation-hardened alloys — without the aging schedule or weld-restriction penalties of PH alloys.
The strength mechanism is Thermo-Mechanical Treatment (TMT): controlled cold working (20-30% reduction) followed by a brief low-temperature anneal that produces a fine, stable substructure of deformed grains with enhanced dislocation density. This delivers:
- ~2x yield strength of annealed C-22 (540 vs 285 MPa).
- Retained ductility (>=25% elongation) — sufficient for pressure vessel design.
- Corrosion resistance essentially unchanged from C-22 in most media.
C-22HS vs. alternatives:
| Property | C-22HS | C-22 (annealed) | Alloy 59 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Yield Strength | >= 540 MPa | >= 285 MPa | >= 350 MPa |
| PREN | ~69 | ~65 | ~73 |
| Corrosion Envelope | C-22 class | C-22 class | Broader (higher Mo) |
| Cost | Baseline | Similar | +15-25% |
Shanghai Hangbo Alloy Group supplies C-22HS in bars, tubes, and plates in the TMT (strengthened) condition.

Heat Treatment
C-22HS is supplied in the TMT (thermo-mechanically treated) condition — strength is imparted by controlled cold work + stabilization anneal, not by age hardening.
Annealed condition available (for welding/fabrication): 1121C/rapid cool, then re-strengthen via TMT after fabrication.
Industry Applications
| Industry | Component | Why C-22HS? |
|---|---|---|
| Chemical Processing | High-pressure reactors, autoclaves | 2x yield = 35-45% thinner walls |
| Oil & Gas | High-pressure fittings, downhole tools | Strength + NACE MR0175 corrosion |
| Heat Exchangers | Tube sheets, high-pressure headers | Strength + seawater resistance |
| Pulp & Paper | Digester components | Corrosion + structural load |
| Flue Gas | High-temp scrubber internals | Corrosion + strength at temperature |

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: What is C-22HS used for?
High-pressure chemical reactors, oilfield components, heat exchanger tube sheets, and any application needing C-22 corrosion resistance with 2x structural strength.
Q2: How does it achieve 2x strength?
Thermo-mechanical treatment (TMT) — controlled cold work + stabilization anneal creates a high-dislocation substructure without age hardening.
Q3: C-22HS vs C-22?
Same corrosion envelope; 2x yield strength (540 vs 285 MPa). C-22HS for pressure-critical, C-22 for fabricability-critical.
Q4: C-22HS vs Alloy 59?
59 has slightly broader corrosion (higher Mo) but lower strength (350 MPa yield). 22HS wins where strength dominates.
Q5: Is it weldable?
Yes, but welding locally anneals the TMT structure — re-strengthen welded regions by re-TMT or design using annealed properties in welds.
Q6: What is the price?
$70-110/kg EXW. Contact sales@hangboalloy.com.
Q7: Product forms?
Bars (6-200mm), tubes (OD 10-219mm), plates (3-50mm). SGS available.
Q8: Is it magnetic?
No — fully austenitic.
Q9: What is the density?
8.40 g/cm3.
Q10: Does Shanghai Hangbo ship internationally?
Yes — FOB/CIF/DAP to 40+ countries.
Q11: What standards apply?
ASTM B575 (plate), B574 (bar), B622 (tube).
Q12: What is the PREN?
~69 — excellent chloride pitting resistance.
Q13: What is the max service temperature?
~600°C continuous.
Q14: Does it meet NACE?
Yes — NACE MR0175 qualified.
Q15: How much weight does it save?
Approximately 35-45% thinner pressure-retaining walls vs annealed C-22.
