CHLORIMET 2 castings

Description (English)

CHLORIMET 2 is supplied as castings in the 2100°F water-quenched condition, delivering yield strength of 317 MPa, tensile strength of 524 MPa, elongation of 20%, and hardness of 230 HB. The alloy is manufactured to ASTM A 744 (general applications castings) and ASTM A 494 (castings). The combination of high molybdenum content and water quenching ensures optimal corrosion resistance in reducing chemical environments. CHLORIMET 2 is widely used in chemical processing for handling hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, phosphoric acid, and other reducing chemicals.
