Inconel 600 (also known as Alloy 600), designated as UNS N06600 and W.Nr. 2.4816, is a nickel-chromium alloy known for its excellent oxidation and corrosion resistance in high-temperature environments. It maintains its strength and stability at temperatures up to 2,000°F (1,093°C), making it ideal for applications where resistance to both heat and corrosive elements is critical.
Common applications of Inconel 600 include furnace components, heat exchangers, and chemical processing equipment. Its versatility and resistance to a wide range of corrosive environments, including chloride and sulfur-containing compounds, make it a preferred material in the aerospace, power generation, and chemical industries.
