Properties and Specifications of Inconel 601 pipe

Inconel 601 (UNS N06601 / W.Nr. 2.4851) is a general-purpose engineering material with a composition primarily of nickel (58.0-63.0%), chromium (21.0-25.0%) and a small but effective addition of aluminum (1.0-1.7%).

Oxidation Resistance

Its outstanding characteristic lies in high-temperature oxidation resistance, maintaining exceptional oxidation resistance even at 2200°F (1200°C).
