Common questions
- 01What is the density of INCONEL 600?
- 8470 kg/m³ — the figure the weight calculators on this site use for INCONEL 600. The value is Special Metals / nickel alloy datasheets’s.
- 02What is the chemical composition of INCONEL 600?
- C ≤ 0.15, Si ≤ 0.5, Mn ≤ 1, S ≤ 0.015, Cr 14–17, Ni ≥ 72, Cu ≤ 0.5, in mass %, to ASTM / Special Metals. An element the standard sets no requirement for is left blank here rather than written as zero.
- 03What is INCONEL 600 used for?
- Heat treatment, chemical, nuclear
