Inconel wire mesh is the premium solution for applications where standard alloys fail. Its unique combination of heat resistance, strength, and corrosion protection justifies the higher cost in:
✔ Extreme temperature environments
✔ Highly corrosive chemical processes
✔ Mission-critical aerospace components
✔ Long-term installations requiring minimal maintenance
Selection Tip: For most applications, Inconel 600 provides the best balance of performance and cost. Upgrade to 625 for severe corrosion or 718 for maximum strength in critical components.
For non-extreme environments, consider Monel or stainless steel for better cost efficiency.
Inconel wire mesh is woven from nickel-chromium superalloys, primarily:
Inconel 600 (72% Ni, 14-17% Cr, 6-10% Fe) – Standard grade
Inconel 601 (58-63% Ni, 21-25% Cr) – Improved oxidation resistance
Inconel 625 (58% Ni, 20-23% Cr, 8-10% Mo) – Superior corrosion/creep resistance
Inconel 718 (50-55% Ni, 17-21% Cr) – Age-hardenable for extreme strength
Extreme Temperature Resistance
Maintains strength from cryogenic (-423°F/-253°C) to 2200°F (1200°C)
Forms protective chromium oxide layer at high heat
✔ Unmatched Corrosion Resistance
Resists oxidizing acids, chlorides, seawater, and steam
Performs in sulfuric, hydrochloric, and phosphoric acid environments
✔ Mechanical Performance
High tensile strength (up to 220 ksi for Inconel 718)
Excellent fatigue and creep resistance
✔ Special Characteristics
Non-magnetic
Low thermal expansion
Oxidation resistant in continuous service
