ASTM B168 N06601, also known as Inconel 601 or 2.4851, is a nickel-chromium alloy with a small amount of aluminum added. It combines the advantages of nickel, chromium and aluminum, thus showing excellent resistance to high temperature oxidation and corrosion. This alloy is specified in several international standards, such as ASME SB-168, DIN/EN2.4851, AMS 5870, etc., which ensure consistency in its manufacture and quality control.
ASTM B168 N06601 Features:
Excellent corrosion resistance: N06601 alloy shows good corrosion resistance in both oxidation and reduction environments, and has excellent corrosion resistance to acid substances such as chloride ions, sulfuric acid, hydrosulfuric acid, hydrochloric acid and organic acid.
Excellent high temperature strength: At high temperatures, N06601 alloy can maintain excellent tensile strength and yield strength, and has good creep fracture strength, so that it can maintain excellent mechanical properties under high temperature conditions.
Good welding performance: the alloy is easy to be connected by various welding methods, and the mechanical properties and corrosion resistance of the welded joint are comparable to that of the base material.
Excellent workability: N06601 alloy work hardening rate is low, easy to cold and hot work, but also can be strengthened by heat treatment process.
The delivery status of ASTM B168 N06601 can usually be customized according to the customer's needs. Common delivery conditions include hot rolling, cold rolling, annealing, normalizing, etc. In addition, depending on the application requirements, different surface treatments and cutting lengths are available. The specific delivery status will be negotiated with the supplier at the time of purchase.
The excellent properties of N06601 alloy make it widely used in many fields. It is mainly used to manufacture heating elements and pipes at high temperatures, such as heat treatment equipment and components, industrial furnace tubes, flame nozzles and electric heating elements. In addition, it is also widely used in the chemical industry of condensing tubes, nitric acid production equipment parts and glass industry heat and corrosion resistance parts. In environmental pollution control and power industry, N06601 alloy also plays an important role.
