Inconel 601 characteristics
Inconel® 601 is a nickel-chromium alloy, that is highly resistant to oxidation through 2200°F. Alloy 601 alloy gives outstanding resistance to hot corrosion resistance under oxidizing conditions.
The most important property of Inconel 601 is resistance to oxidation at very high temperatures up to 1250°C. Even under severe conditions such as, cyclical heating and cooling. This is possible due to Inconel 601 having a tightly adherent oxide layer which is resistant against spalling. Resistance to carburization is good, also resistant to carbon nitriding conditions. Due to high chromium and some aluminum content, good resistance in oxidizing sulfur bearing atmospheres at elevated temperatures is demonstrated.
