INCONEL^®

Haohua Industry supplies Inconel® alloys C-276, HX, 22, 600, 601, 625 & 718 in the form of Plate, Sheet, Bar, Wire, Pipe, Tubing, Pipe Fittings, Flanges and Electrode.

The registered trademark name, Inconel, is applied as the prefix name to more than twenty different highly corrosion resistant high temperature strength metal alloys produced by Special Metals Corporation. These Inconel alloys or superalloys are nickel-based alloys that exhibit traits such as high resistance to corrosion, oxidation, carburization, pitting, crevice, corrosion cracking, and high temperature strength. Often, Inconel is referred to as “Inco”.

Alloys of identical chemical and mechanical properties are available from other manufacturers and offer excellent alternativesto the various Inconel® brand alloys.

The corrosion-resistant superalloys are widely used in extreme environments where tremendous heat and corrosion resistance is paramount to the integrity of the end product. Chemical processing, nuclear, petrochemical, aerospace and marine industries widely use these superalloys.

What are the Characteristics of Inconel?

Good resistance to acids, such as sulfuric, phosphoric, nitric, and hydrochloric
Almost completely free from chloride induced stress corrosion cracking
Excellent mechanical properties at both extremely low and extremely high temperatures
Outstanding resistance to pitting, crevice corrosion and intercrystalline corrosion
High resistance to oxidation at elevated temperatures
 

In what Applications are Inconel alloys used?

Chemical and petrochemical processing
Components where exposure to high mechanical stress and sea water are required
Flare stacks on offshore oil platforms
Gas turbines, rocket motors/engines, and space craft
Pollution control equipment
Nuclear reactors

     Superalloys aka high performance alloys have become the steel of choice for corrosion resistance and  versatility.

Inconel Trivia

North American Aviation constructed the skin of the X-15 rocket plane out of an Inconel® alloy known as Inconel HX.
