UNS Number N06600
Other common names: Alloy 600
Inconel 600 is a nickel-chromium alloy used for applications that
require corrosion and high temperature resistance. This nickel
alloy was designed for service temperatures from cryogenic to
elevated temperatures in the range of 2000° F. It is non-magnetic,
has excellent mechanical properties, and presents the desirable
combination of high strength and good weldability under a wide
range of temperatures. 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. Typical applications of this
nickel alloy include the chemical, pulp and paper, aerospace,
nuclear engineering and heat treating industries.

Fabrication with Inconel 600
Alloy 600 can be both hot formed and cold formed using typical
processes. Hot working should be performed between 1600 degree 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.
