Hastelloy® G-3 (Alloy G3) Wire UNS N06985

Shaped, Flat, Square, Round, Fine Wire, Plated and Un-plated ASTM 581, ASTM B 582

Hastelloy G-3 Wire Description

Alloy G3 has excellent corrosion resistance to oxidizing chemicals and atmospheres while offering resistance to reducing chemicals resulting from the nickel and copper content. The high molybdenum provides very good resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion. The low carbon helps prevent sensitization, giving the alloy resistance to inter-granular corrosion.

Applications

Components used in handling equipment that processes reducing acids such as phosphoric and sulfuric
Components used in the productions of sour gas and oil

Properties Tempered

Alloy G-3 can be cold rolled to achieve the temper properties required by specific customers and/or manufacturing requirements. Contact Ulbrich Wire for details.

Additional Properties

Corrosion Resistance

Refer to NACE (National Association of Corrosion Engineers) for recommendations.

Standard Wire Finishes

Extra Clean: (XC) Extra clean is also referred to as “bright annealed” or “bright annealed and cold rolled”

Grease (round wire only): Drawn in a heavy grease produces an “Ultra bright” finish for decorative applications

Soap (round wire only): Soap is used as a lubricant in the drawing process and is not removed. It acts as a lubricant during customer part forming operation. A soap finish is available in tempered products.
Plated: Many plating options are available.
*Special finishes are available: Contact Ulbrich Wire Sales with special finish and plating requests.

Forms

Continuous Coils
Cut to lengths
Precision cutting

Heat Treatment

Alloy G-3 is non hardenable by heat treatment.
