Material Overview & Key Advantages of Hastelloy G30 (Alloy G-30, UNS N06030)

 Hastelloy G30 (UNS N06030, also known as Alloy G-30)  is an advanced nickel-chromium-iron-molybdenum-copper superalloy designed as a major improvement over the traditional Alloy G-3.Its typical composition is: nickel (balance), chromium 28–31.5%, iron 13–17%, molybdenum 4–6%, copper 1–2.4%, tungsten 1.5–4%, and niobium + tantalum 0.3–1.5%.It has the highest chromium content among all G-series alloys, so that  it has excellent performance in commercial phosphoric acid and mixed oxidizing acid environments containing fluoride and chloride impurities.

✅ Key Finding: Wet-Process Phosphoric Acid with Fluoride/Chloride

 In wet-process phosphoric acid containing 0.3–0.5% F⁻ and 500–1000 ppm Cl⁻ impurities at 80–85°C, Hastelloy G30 shows corrosion rates 3–6× lower than Alloy G-3 and 20–40× lower than 316L stainless steel. This makes G30 the industry benchmark material for phosphoric acid heat exchanger tube sheets and process piping.

6.2 Nitric Acid (HNO₃)

Mixed acid (HNO₃ + HF)60°C (140°F)0.05–0.100.180.850.95

Hastelloy G30 performs exceptionally well in nitric acid thanks to its high chromium content of 28–31.5%, which forms a stable, self-repairing passive Cr₂O₃ film even in strongly oxidizing environments.By contrast, C276 performs much worse in HNO₃ because of its lower chromium content of 14.5–16.5%.

⚠️ Note on High-Concentration Sulfuric Acid

For H₂SO₄ concentrations above 50% at elevated temperatures, Hastelloy C276 or Alloy B-3 (UNS N10675) may be a better choice due to their higher molybdenum content. G30 is optimized for oxidizing acid environments and mixed acid systems — not for high-concentration pure reducing acids.

Welding Procedure & Filler Metal Guide for Hastelloy G30 (UNS N06030)

One of the best things about Hastelloy G30  is how easy it is to weld. G30 is different from many other nickel alloys in that it can be used in the as-welded state for most chemical process applications without needing post-weld heat treatment (PWHT).

This is due to its low carbon content (≤0.03%) and the Nb+Ta addition that stabilizes carbides and prevents sensitization in the weld heat-affected zone (HAZ).

Machining Guide for Hastelloy G30 (UNS N06030) Forgings

Hastelloy G30 is more difficult to machine than carbon steel or 316L stainless steel due to its high work-hardening rate, high hot strength, and tendency to generate built-up edge on cutting tools. However, with the correct tooling and cutting parameters, excellent surface finish and tight tolerances (±0.02 mm) can be achieved. Our Jiangyin CNC machining center is optimized for nickel alloy machining.

316L stainless steel — needed replacement every 18–24 months due to pitting and crevice corrosion in fluoride/chloride-contaminated H₃PO₄
Result:
After 42 months in service, zero corrosion defect detected during scheduled shutdown inspection. Maintenance frequency reduced by over 45%. Estimated lifetime extension to 8–10 years vs. 18–24 months for 316L SS. Client has since standardized on G30 for all WPA heat exchanger tube sheets.

Frequently Asked Questions — Hastelloy G30 (Alloy G-30, UNS N06030) Forging Parts

Hastelloy G30 (UNS N06030, also called Alloy G‑30) is a high‑performance nickel‑chromium‑iron‑molybdenum‑copper superalloy designed for excellent corrosion resistance in oxidizing acid environments — especially commercial phosphoric acid with fluoride and chloride impurities.Key specifications: Cr 28–31.5% (the highest in the G‑series), density 8.22 g/cm³, ultimate tensile strength ≥ 586 MPa, yield strength ≥ 241 MPa, elongation ≥ 30%, maximum operating temperature 427°C (800°F).It provides 30–40% better resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion than the earlier Alloy G‑3, and can usually be used in the as‑welded condition without post‑weld heat treatment.

In 85% phosphoric acid (H₃PO₄) at 80°C, Hastelloy G30 has a corrosion rate of about 0.02–0.05 mm/year, which is rated "Excellent" (below 0.1 mm/year).In commercial wet-process phosphoric acid (68–72% H₃PO₄) at 80°C containing 0.3% fluoride and 500 ppm chloride impurities, G30 shows a corrosion rate of 0.04–0.08 mm/year. By comparison, Alloy G-3 reaches 0.12–0.18 mm/year, and 316L stainless steel is 1.5–3.0 mm/year.Refer to the complete corrosion rate tables above for detailed values across different concentrations and temperatures.

Primary method: GTAW (TIG). Filler: ERNiCrMo-11 (AWS A5.14). Preheat: Not needed. Interpass temperature: Maximum 120°C (250°F). Shielding gas: 100% Argon (≥ 99.99% purity). Post-weld heat treatment: Generally NOT needed — G30 can be used in the as-welded condition for most chemical process applications due to Nb+Ta carbide stabilization. Heat input: 0.5–1.5 kJ/mm (low to medium). Never use carbon steel brushes or tools on G30 surfaces. If PWHT is specified: solution anneal at 1120–1175°C + water quench. See the full welding guide section above for complete parameters and critical warnings.

Standard heat treatment for Hastelloy G30 (UNS N06030) forgings:Solution annealing at 1120–1175°C (2050–2150°F), holding at least one hour for every 25 mm of section thickness, then rapid water quenching with transfer time from furnace to water under 3 minutes. This process dissolves all carbides, fully reforms the grain matrix, and restores the highest possible corrosion resistance.Hastelloy G30 cannot be hardened by precipitation — it is only strengthened through solid solution.Hot forging temperature range: minimum 980°C (reheat if lower) and maximum starting temperature 1230°C.

Hastelloy G30 is a major improvement over Alloy G-3. The main differences are: G30 has a much higher chromium content at 28–31.5%, compared to only 22% in G-3, which is why it resists oxidizing acids much better. G30 also includes Nb+Ta at 0.3–1.5%, which G-3 does not have. This stops weld heat-affected zones from becoming sensitive to corrosion and lets G30 be used right after welding without post-weld heat treatment. G30 also has better balanced amounts of molybdenum, copper, and tungsten. In wet-process phosphoric acid with fluoride and chloride impurities, G30 corrodes 3 to 6 times slower than G-3. In tests for weld heat-affected zone sensitivity, G30 performs well while G-3 only shows borderline results. G30 is clearly the better choice for the toughest phosphoric acid and mixed oxidizing acid applications.

Compared to Alloy 625 (N06625):G30 resists oxidizing acids better, especially phosphoric acid and nitric acid, because it has a higher chromium content. Alloy 625 has much more molybdenum at 8–10% and higher niobium content, which gives it better strength at high temperatures up to 816°C, better performance in cryogenic conditions, and better resistance to reducing acids. Alloy 625 is also significantly more expensive. Choose G30 for acidic corrosive environments, and choose 625 for high-temperature, cryogenic, or very high-strength applications.
Compared to Alloy 825 (N08825):G30 offers much better resistance to oxidizing acids, with chromium at 28–31.5% versus 19.5–23.5% in 825, and much better resistance to stress corrosion cracking in chloride environments. Alloy 825 is a lower-cost choice only for mild service conditions and is not suitable for high-concentration phosphoric acid or nitric acid.

Hastelloy G30 (Alloy G-30, UNS N06030) has a density of 8.22 g/cm³ (0.297 lb/in³) at room temperature.Other main physical properties include an elastic modulus of 196 GPa (28.4 × 10⁶ psi), thermal expansion coefficient of 13.1 μm/(m·°C) from 24 to 100°C, thermal conductivity of 11.3 W/(m·K) at 24°C, melting range of 1315–1355°C (2400–2470°F), and electrical resistivity of 1.17 μΩ·m.For the full list of physical properties, refer to the table in Section 5 above.

Hastelloy G30 is about 2 to 3 times harder to machine than carbon steel. This is because it hardens quickly when worked, has high strength at high temperatures, tends to build up material on cutting tools, and has low thermal conductivity that traps heat at the tool tip. To machine it properly, use sharp PVD TiAlN coated carbide inserts. Recommended turning speed is 30–80 m/min, feed rate 0.05–0.35 mm/rev, and high-pressure coolant of at least 70 bar through the spindle for drilling. Never stop feeding during a cut, keep a constant depth of cut to avoid the work-hardened surface layer, and change inserts often. Our CNC machining center in Jiangyin can achieve a surface finish of Ra ≤ 1.6 μm and ±0.02 mm tolerance on G30 parts as standard. For full details, see the machining guide in Section 10 above.
