Nickel Alloy Hastelloy C276 vs N06219
Nickel Alloy · grade comparison
Nickel Alloy Hastelloy C276 and N06219 are both nickel alloy grades. N06219 is the stronger of the two: yield strength 380 MPa (55.1 ksi) against 360 MPa (52.2 ksi) for Hastelloy C276, about 6% more. N06219 runs hotter in service (1,000°C vs 650°C continuous). On the shop floor, Hastelloy C276 sits in a lower cost tier (premium, $$$) than N06219 (high, $$$$).
Hastelloy C276Choose it when cost is the deciding factor.
N06219Choose it when strength drives the design, or when the part sees heat.
Hastelloy C276 vs N06219: propertiesHow to read these bars
- One bar per material. A full bar is the highest value among all nickel alloy grades in the FabDigit library; each bar is drawn as a share of that.
- The better value (by the usual engineering direction) is in bold. Rows with no direction — density, thermal conductivity — have no bold.
- Values are typical room-temperature figures for the condition named on each card.
- Confirm against the certified mill or resin datasheet before design release.
