Inconel 600 – Alloy 600 Info – AMS 5665 – 5687 – 5540 – 5580
Description
Today we will be taking a look at one of the more popular of the Nickel alloys known as Inconel 600 when produced by Special Metals Corporation or just “alloy 600” when produced by anyone else like Carpenter Technology. The UNS chemical composition designation is N06600
This alloy is a solid solution of its elements and cannot be strengthened by heat treatment. Cold working will result in increased strength. Heat treatment can remove any undesirable effects of cold work.
Nickel alloys are used in applications involving elevated temperatures, corrosion , or both. Chemical processing equipment relies on the corrosion performance over a wide range of environments.
Commercial applications involve furnace components and fixtures requiring strength and oxidation resistance at temperatures up to 2000 degrees F. For more info check out the site at:
