Alloy 600 Inconel is a nickel chromium alloy with good oxidation
resistance at elevated temperatures, resistance to stress corrosion
cracking, caustic corrosion and ultra high purity water corrosion. Typical
applications include furnace components, chemical and food processing,
nuclear engineering and sparking electrodes.
Alloy x-750 Inconel is similar to alloy 600 but is hardenable due to the
addition of Ti and Al. In addition to good corrosion and oxidation
resistance it also has high tensile strength and creep properties to
around 700° C. Its resistance to relaxation makes it suitable for high
temperature springs and it is also used in rocket engines, nuclear
reactors, aircraft, tooling and pressure vessels.
