Description (English)

Hastelloy C-22 (UNS N06022, DIN 2.4602) is the premium nickel superalloy for tablet press upper punches and capsule filler tamping pins processing corrosive pharmaceutical formulations such as potassium chloride, effervescents and acidic or hygroscopic powders. With a PREN of ≈ 66 — higher than C-276 — C-22 keeps cup tips and pin heads clean, non-sticking and contamination-free where D2 and 440C tooling pits and builds up powder films within days. Vertex Alloy supplies solution-annealed C-22 ground bars from 2 to 120 mm (including 2–12 mm tamping pin grinding stock, h7/h8) to ASTM B574 with EN 10204 3.1 certificates, plus custom-machined finished upper punches and tamp pins per drawing for all major press and encapsulator brands (Fette, Korsch, Bosch GKF, IMA, MG2 and more). Full heat-number traceability from mill bar to finished tooling.

Keeping these values visible helps a technical buyer compare the product with a drawing, purchase specification, or applicable standard before requesting a quotation. Mechanical values can guide early checks for strength and forming requirements, while physical values and composition details help with material identification, process planning, and service-environment review. Values should be confirmed against the latest mill certificate, heat or lot documentation, product condition, test method, and governing standard before production use. Vertex Alloy can review the required performance range and clarify which supplied values apply to the requested size and delivery condition.

Grade Compliance

C22 Material for Upper Punch & Tamp Supplier | Hastelloy C-22 N06022 Tamping Pin Bar carries the recorded grade references UNS (USA) N06022, DIN / EN (Germany/EU) 2.4602 / NiCr21Mo14W, Haynes Trademark HASTELLOY® C-22®, GB (China) NS 338 / 00Cr22Ni60Mo13W3, and Common Names Alloy 22. These references give engineering and procurement teams a starting point for checking material identity, equivalent designations, and documentation requirements. A grade reference should always be read together with its applicable standard, product form, dimensional range, delivery condition, heat treatment, testing requirements, and revision level. Equivalent designations are not automatically interchangeable in every service, so the governing project specification remains controlling. Before order placement, confirm the required standard and certificate format, including chemical, mechanical, visual, dimensional, and any special testing requirements. Vertex Alloy can help compare the requested designation with the available product record and identify details that need confirmation from the producing mill.
