VERIFY BEFORE APPROVE — audit v2 finding 5 raised yield 275 → 414 MPa and tensile 690 → 827 MPa (ASTM B443 Gr 1, solution annealed, 60/120 ksi). Independently confirm against the current ASTM B443 edition from a licensed copy before moving this row past draft (R12/R13). The audit flags this one as needing verification, not sign-off.

Each row is one standard, one product form and one condition — the values do not transfer across rows. A blank cell means the standard sets no requirement.

Common questions

01What is the density of INCONEL 625?
8440 kg/m³ — the figure the weight calculators on this site use for INCONEL 625. The value is Special Metals / nickel alloy datasheets’s.
02What is the chemical composition of INCONEL 625?
C ≤ 0.1, Si ≤ 0.5, Mn ≤ 0.5, P ≤ 0.015, S ≤ 0.015, Cr 20–23, Ni ≥ 58, Mo 8–10, in mass %, to ASTM / Special Metals. An element the standard sets no requirement for is left blank here rather than written as zero.
03What are the mechanical properties of INCONEL 625?
Tensile ≥ 827 MPa, Yield ≥ 414 MPa, Elongation min ≥ 30 % — ASTM B443/vendor reference, Plate/Sheet, Solution annealed. Those are the standard’s requirements; the mill test certificate governs the metal delivered.
04What is INCONEL 625 used for?
Offshore, seawater, chemical, aerospace
