Super Alloys
Hastelloy C-276
Widely regarded as the most versatile corrosion-resistant alloy in existence, Hastelloy C-276 provides an impenetrable barrier against aggressive chlorides, solvents, and sour gas.


High-performance corrosion-resistant alloy engineered for aggressive and mixed chemical environments.
Ideal for harsh chemical media including strong oxidizers, chlorides, and reducing acids. Trusted across pulp, paper, power, and process industries.
Ingot Manufacturing Process
RFQ from Customer
Alloy chemistry and ingot specifications are finalized as per application requirements.
Alloy Design/Planning
As per customer requirement mould design carried out and planned for charge preparation, charge sequences in VIM furnace. Careful selection of raw materials are the prime factor to achieve specified chemistry of an alloy.
Alloy Melting by VIM
Virgin elements are charged into the VIM furnace either in air or under vacuum, with precise adjustments made for trace element additions during melting.
Process & Quality Control
The melt is poured under vacuum into precision-engineered molds using an automatic tilting mechanism for defect-free solidification.
Primary Finishing
Post-casting processes include surface treatment, cropping, and preparation of ingots for downstream processing.
Testing & Packaging
Every batch is tested for chemical composition by Spark- OES / wet analysis / Gas analysis, and physical compliance as per customer specification before secure packaging.
