Inconel 600 (UNS N06600) nickel base alloy plate rod with seamless tube

Inconel 600 is a nickel-chromium-iron alloy that exhibits good corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance, and high strength at elevated temperatures. Inconel 600 is highly resistant to chloride ion stress corrosion cracking due to its high nickel content. Age hardening is not required since Inconel 600 is hardened and strengthened only by cold working. Inconel 600 can perform in temperatures down to 700°F (370°C).
