For more details, pls directly contact us.
Inconel 600 wire, known by its UNS designation N06600 and manufactured according to ASTM B166, is a solid solution-strengthened alloy composed mainly of nickel with chromium and iron. This composition gives it excellent resistance to oxidation and corrosion at high temperatures while retaining good mechanical properties across a broad temperature spectrum.
Unlike many alloys that degrade in oxidizing or reducing environments, Inconel 600 offers stability, even when exposed to chloride stress corrosion cracking. This makes it one of the most dependable materials for environments where chemical and thermal resistance are critical. When formed into wire, it becomes a flexible, durable material ideal for electrical heating elements, marine applications, and industrial filtration systems.
