Inconel 600 Good oxidation resistance at high temperatures hex nuts
At elevated temperatures the annealed and solution annealed alloy shows good resistance to scaling and has high strength. The alloy also resists ammonia bearing atmospheres, as well as nitrogen and carburizing gases.
Chromium confers resistance to sulfur compounds and also provides resistance to oxidizing conditions at high temperatures or in corrosive solutions. The high nickel content in Inconel 600 enables it to retain considerable resistance under reducing conditions, makes it resistant to corrosion by a number of organic and inorganic compounds, gives it excellent resistance to chloride-ion stress-corrosion cracking and also provides excellent resistance to alkaline solutions.
