Inconel 600 (Alloy 600, UNS N06600) Nickel Alloy Flange, ASTM B564 / ASME SA564, Weld-neck raised face (WNRF)
What is Inconel 600 Nickel Alloy Flange?
Inconel 600 Nickel Alloy Flange is a high-performance industrial flange made from Inconel 600 (UNS N06600), a nickel-chromium-iron alloy. It is known for excellent resistance to heat, corrosion, and oxidation, making it ideal for harsh environments like chemical processing, power generation, and marine applications. These flanges maintain strength and stability in high-temperature and corrosive conditions.
