Nickel Alloy Hastelloy X vs N06219
Nickel Alloy · grade comparison
Nickel Alloy Hastelloy X 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 X, about 6% more. N06219 is the more ductile: elongation 60% versus 43% for Hastelloy X. Hastelloy X is lighter (8.22 g/cm³ vs 8.7 g/cm³ for N06219) and Hastelloy X runs hotter in service (1,150°C vs 1,000°C continuous). On the shop floor, Hastelloy X sits in a lower cost tier (premium, $$$) than N06219 (high, $$$$).
Hastelloy XChoose it when weight is the constraint, or when the part sees heat.
N06219Choose it when strength drives the design, or when the part is bent, formed or impact-loaded.
Hastelloy X 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.
