Inconel 600 applications include furnace retort seals, fixtures and fans, roller hearths in carbon nitriding processes, radiant tubes, reactor vessels, heat exchanger tubes and other components in vinyl chloride production and in thermocouple sheaths and others. Inconel 600 is a chromium nickel superalloy that contains carbon, manganese, chromium, silicon, sulfur and iron in its composition. It is a strong and hard alloy that is resistant to most acidic conditions and has very high temperature and pressure resistance. The material is nonmagnetic and could be welded upon. There are Alloy 600 equivalent grades that could be used in conjunction with or as replacements of the 600 alloy. The Inconel 600 UNS N06600 in particular has good mechanical properties and very high strength. Most of the products of this alloy are made through annealing processes which make the products stronger. This material is resistant to oxidizing agents due to the chromium content. Reducing conditions are met by the high nickel content. The material is almost immune to chloride ion corrosion stress cracking. Therefore it could be used in most marine and sea water applications and is a cost effective method in a long run. Gases like hydrogen chloride and chloride don’t corrode the material at room temperatures. It is resistant to most dry gases at room temperatures. The DIN 2.4816 is the designation of Inconel 600. There are different standards and schedules to govern the wall thickness and sizes of different products such as plates and pipes. Depending on the grade, standard and product type, the Inconel 600 machinability varies. The material is formed through solution annealed conditions. The alloy is resistant to ammonia bearing conditions, nitrogen and carburizing gases. The 600 Inconel material is used in the caustic alkalis production. It is also resistant to most organic acids. The Inconel 600 suppliers sell all different kinds of products in this range. You can check the prices of different products with us.

Alloy 600 can be both hot formed and cold formed using typical processes. Hot working should be performed between 1600° F and 2250° F avoiding any work between1200-1600° F because the ductility decreases in this temperature range. Welding Alloy 600 can be achieved via shielded metal-arc welding, TIG, and MIG.
