Inconel 601 is a nickel-chromium alloy utilized for applications that oblige resistance to corrosion and heat. These nickel alloys emerge because of its resistance to high temperature oxidation, remaining exceptionally resistant to oxidation through 2200° F.
Alloy 601 adds to a firmly disciple oxide scale which resist spalling even under states of extreme thermal cycling. These nickel alloys holds its ductility after long service exposure and has great high temperature strength. It has good resistance to aqueous corrosion, high mechanical strength, and is promptly shaped, machined and welded. Inconel 601's properties make it a material of expansive utility in fields like thermal processing, chemical processing, pollution control, aerospace and power generation. Thus, alloy 601 is not recommended for use in firmly reducing, sulfur bearing environments.
