Inconel 600 round wire combines the strength of nickel, the oxidation resistance of chromium, and the structural stability of iron. This carefully balanced composition makes it a go-to choice for high-temperature electrical components, resistance heating systems, and aerospace-grade applications. The alloy is designed to withstand temperatures up to about 1100°C without losing its structural integrity or electrical properties, which makes it particularly effective for long-term use in heating elements and other electrical components.
The wire is produced in a variety of diameters and forms—spools, coils, and straight-cut lengths—to accommodate different industrial requirements. Whether it’s a small-diameter wire for precision heating elements or heavy gauges for structural high-temperature use, DLX ensures every product is manufactured with strict quality control.
