Inconel 625 bolts can be used in a variety of corrosive environments due to their ability to prevent stress corrosion, crevice corrosion and pitting corrosion. In mild applications such as atmospheric, fresh or salt water, neutral salts and alkaline media are almost completely tolerated. In more severe cases, nickel and chromium content provides resistance to oxidizing chemicals. Inconel 625 bolts are also resistant to non-oxidizing environments.
