About Inconel 601 (UNS N06601)
What is Inconel 601?
Inconel 601 is fit for use in the applications demanding greatest elevated temperature heat and corrosion resistance up to 1100oC. Due to presence of nickel, the alloy is highly resistant to oxidation up to 2200oF or 1250oC. It produces extremely reliable oxide layer to prevent spalling under vigorous thermal cycling. High metallurgical stability and fine creep rupturing strength. It avoids SIGMA development and is fit for use in the thermal cycling and shocking operations.
Super alloy 601 has good mechanical properties at high temperatures. Good strength is achieved by cold solution or precipitation strengthening on the base of alloy. The alloy retain fine ductility even after prolong service. It is easily formable, machinable and weldable.

l High-temperature applications in the automotive industry and aerospace – turbocharger rotors and seals (notable use is Mazda RX-7 third gen), rotary engines (Norton motorcycles), Formula 1 and NASCAR exhaust systems;
l High-temperature applications in aerospace – gas turbine blades and containment rings, seals and combustors, jet engine igniters, combustion-can liners, and diffuser assembles;
l Thermal-processing equipment – baskets, trays, and fixtures for annealing, carburizing, carbonitriding, nitriding for industrial-heating applications, and in radiant tubes, muffles, retorts, flame shields, strand-annealing tubes, woven-wire conveyor belts, and electrical resistance heating elements in industrial furnaces;
l Chemical-processing – insulating cans in ammonia reformers and equipment for nitric acid production;
l Petrochemical processing – catalyst generators and air preheaters;
l Pollution-control applications – combustion chambers in solid-waste incinerators;
l Power-generation field – superheater tube supports grid barriers and ash handling
