Inconel 600 (UNS N06600 / DIN 2.4816) Plate
3mm Nonmagnetic DIN 2.4816 Inconel 600 Plate - 8mm x 4 Feet x 8 Feet
Product Overview
Inconel 600 is a nickel-chromium alloy designed for use from cryogenic to elevated temperatures up to 2000°F (1093°C). This high-performance alloy offers excellent oxidation resistance, good performance in carburizing and chloride-containing environments, and is virtually immune to chloride-ion stress corrosion cracking.
Chemical Composition
Ni 72.0%, Cr 15.5%, Fe 8.0%, Mn 1.0%, C 0.15%, Cu 0.5%, Si 0.5%, S 0.015%
Available Forms
Bar, wire cuts, sheet, plate, strip, tube, and pipe
