About Inconel 601
Inconel 601 (UNS N06601) for high-temperature oxidation resistance, bar, sheet, plate, pipe and fittings.
Inconel 601 (UNS N06601) is a nickel-chromium alloy with 1.0–1.7% aluminium that forms a tightly adherent oxide skin, giving outstanding resistance to oxidation and cyclic scaling up to 1200 °C. It also resists carburisation and nitriding, which is why it dominates radiant tubes, muffles, thermal-reactor internals and furnace retorts.
Steelco Metal & Alloys stocks Inconel 601 (UNS N06601) in Mumbai, India as a stockist, importer and exporter, and ships to 40+ countries. Every dispatch carries EN 10204 3.1 (3.2 on request) mill test certificates, PMI verification and is open to third-party inspection.
