Alloy 600 is a nickel-chromium alloy designed for demanding environments requiring excellent resistance to corrosion and high temperatures. Its high nickel content provides strong resistance to chloride-ion stress corrosion cracking, while chromium enhances resistance to oxidation and other corrosive media.
The alloy maintains good mechanical properties across a wide temperature range and offers excellent resistance to carburization and oxidation. It is commonly used for heat exchangers, furnace components, chemical processing equipment, nuclear components, aerospace parts, and high-temperature applications.
Final chemical, mechanical properties, dimensions and tolerances are confirmed against the governing specification and purchase order.
