Products Description
Lork Group's high-quality Inconel 601 (UNS N06601/ W.Nr. 2.4851) is a versatile and robust nickel-chromium alloy with remarkably high-temperature oxidation and corrosion resistance. Its unique composition and properties make it ideal for various industrial applications, particularly in high-temperature and corrosive environments.
Inconel 601 is highly resistant to oxidation through 2200°F. 601 alloy develops a tightly adherent oxide scale that resists spalling even under severe thermal cycling. The alloy has good high-temperature strength and retains its ductility after long service exposure. 601 alloy has good hot corrosion resistance under oxidizing conditions. 601 alloy is not suggested for use in strongly reducing, sulfur-bearing environments.
For maximum oxidation resistance, 601 alloy should be welded with a matching composition of 601 alloy GTAW wire. The weld fillers developed for RA 602 CA can also provide a weld that is stronger and more oxidation-resistant than the 601 alloy base metal. 601 alloy is more difficult to machine than 304 stainless steel. Its machinability rating is 15-21% relative to AISI B1112 steel.
The high chromium content in Inconel 601, ranging from 21.0% to 25.0%, significantly enhances its resistance to corrosion, particularly in aqueous environments. Additionally, the presence of aluminum (Al) in the alloy, between 1.0% and 1.4%, contributes to its exceptional resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion, particularly in high-temperature conditions.
