ASTM B167 UNS N06600 Pipe supplier

Inconel 600 pipe is a chromium-nickel alloy designed for use at temperatures up to 2000°F and down to as low as cryogenic levels. The alloy is resistant to reducing environments as well as chloride stress corrosion cracking due to its nickel content and resistant to weaker oxidizing conditions through its chromium content. Alloy 600 seamless nickel pipe is an austenitic alloy with high nickel content that is non-magnetic and has excellent mechanical properties at both elevated temperatures and cryogenic temperatures.

The construction of Inconel 600 pipes could be either welded or they could be seamless. There are benefits to using both. For e.g. the preference of an Inconel 600 Welded Pipe, is in applications where its economics plays a very important role. Though cheaper than the seamless constructed one, these pipes have a longitudinal seam, which could become susceptible to intergranular corrosion - if they are improperly processed. In a scenario, where the buyer requires the highest form of corrosion resistance and the ability to withstand a higher pressure, Inconel 600 Seamless Pipe is the best option. Buy only from verified Inconel 600 pipe suppliers in India to ensure the best quality and price.

In comparison to welded pipes, the seamless variety can bear a pressure of about 20% higher. Hence, the specified seamless quality ASME SB 167 UNS N06600 pipe are compatible with applications that have the need for general corrosion resistance. The temperature range for this alloy is from 2000 °F right down to cryogenic temperatures. It is their heat resistance properties also make them attractive for several businesses. One such industry is the production of caustic alkalis. Despite the presence of sulfur compounds, ASTM B167 UNS N06600 pipes exhibit good performance and do not break down. The chromium content of Inconel 600 seamless tubing gives it the resistance to sulfur compounds and assorted oxidizing environments, making it superior to pure nickel in those oxidizing conditions. The presence of high nickel content in Alloy 600 tubing delivers impressive corrosion resistance under reducing conditions and by both organic and inorganic compounds. The elevated nickel content works best with resistance to chloride-ion stress-corrosion cracking and alkaline solutions.

Generally, when elemental sulfur is in uninterrupted association with mild steel, it is prone to get attacked by localized corrosion, unlike Inconel 600. The formation of elemental sulfur is a regular affair in sour wells. An oxidation reaction with hydrogen sulfide due to contamination with oxygen what produces sulfur. The precipitation and deposition of sulfur on the walls of the pipe are very common in Sour wells. An excess deposition of sulfur causes regular steel pipes to crack. But, the use of high chromium alloys like Alloy 600 Pipe can delay the rate of corrosion.

Inconel Alloy 600 tubing is made from a non-magnetic, nickel-chromium alloy known for its good oxidation resistance at high temperatures. Inconel Alloy UNS N06600 was designed for use from cryogenic to elevated temperatures up to and surpassing 2000 degrees F. ASTM B163 Inconel 600 Tube possesses great mechanical properties, a good combination of high strength with good workability, and is weldable without difficulty. Inconel Alloy 600 is not precipitative hardenable, it is hardened and strengthened solely through cold work. JN Alloy has an enviable reputation as a supplier of high quality Inconel 600 pipe in China.
