Nickel Alloys Wire Inconel 600 UNS N06600 Applied In Multiple Industries
Inconel 600 wire is a high-performance nickel-chromium-iron alloy wire with excellent corrosion resistance, oxidation resistance and high temperature strength. Its chemical composition mainly includes about 72% nickel, 14-17% chromium and 6-10% iron, as well as small amounts of manganese, copper and carbon. The high nickel content of this alloy makes it exhibit excellent corrosion and oxidation resistance in a variety of environments, including acidic, alkaline and high temperature environments.
Inconel 600 wire has the following features:
Element | Percent |
Nickel (plus Cobalt) (Min) | 72 |
Chromium | 14-17 |
Iron | 6-10 |
Carbon (Max) | .15 |
Manganese (Max) | 1 |
Sulfur (Max) | .015 |
