INCONEL 600（UNS N06600） PIPE/TUBE
Nickel-Chromium-Iron Alloy for High-Temperature & Corrosive Service
INCONEL 600 pipe/tube is used for heat exchangers, furnace systems, chemical process piping, and high-temperature gas handling where oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance are required.
As a professional Chinese nickel-based alloy manufacturer, we supply INCONEL 600 in multiple product forms with stable chemistry, consistent mechanical properties, and flexible dimensional customization for global industrial users.
Typical supply range (custom sizes and tolerances available upon request):
Item | Range / Options | Notes |
Outside Diameter (OD) | 6 – 610 mm | Seamless / welded per size and specification. |
Wall thickness (WT) | 0.5 – 30 mm | Specify schedule/class where applicable. |
Length | Up to 6000 mm | Random length or fixed cut length by agreement. |
Type | Seamless / Welded | Seamless preferred for high-pressure and critical service. |
End | Plain / Beveled / Threaded | End prep available per drawing and standard. |
Surface finish | Pickled / Bright annealed / Polished | Inside cleaning available for instrument tubing. |
Delivery condition | Solution annealed (standard) | Pickled & passivated on request. |
Dimension definition: OD × WT × LENGTH.
• Excellent oxidation resistance up to 1093°C (2000°F) in air and many industrial atmospheres
• Good resistance to carburization and nitriding environments
• Strong resistance to chloride-ion stress corrosion cracking (SCC)
• Good resistance to caustic alkalis and many organic/inorganic acids
• High nickel content provides resistance to reducing media and high-purity water corrosion
• Good fabrication and welding performance for demanding service equipment
Element | Ni | Cr | Fe | C | Mn | Si | Cu | S |
