Description |
|
solution treatment |
is heated at 1000-1150°C and then rapidly cooled to improve oxidation resistance and high temperature strength. |
machining and welding
·Cold working: suitable for cold drawing and cold rolling, which can increase strength.
·Hot processing: It should be carried out between 900-1200°C.
·welding: suitable for TIG and MIG welding, no special heat treatment after welding.
Application
·Chemical equipment: used for heat exchangers and heaters in high-temperature corrosive environments.
·heat treatment equipment: used for high temperature furnace lining and crucible.
·Power industry: suitable for gas turbine components and exhaust gas treatment equipment.
·petrochemical industry: processing equipment for corrosion resistance.
Inconel 601 alloys are available in different shapes and sizes, including plates, bars, wires and forgings.
