Inconel 600 metallographic structure:
The alloy is treated at 1120℃ for 2h, and only TiN nitride and Cr7C3 carbide are present. After long-term aging at 870℃ and 1500℃, the organization is still Cr7C3 and TiN, indicating that the organization of the alloy is stable.
Inconel 600 process performance and requirements:
1. The alloy has good hot working performance, and the heating temperature of the ingot forging is 1110℃～1140℃.
2. The average grain size of the alloy is closely related to the deformation degree and final forging temperature of the forging.
3. The alloy has good welding performance and can be connected by various methods such as arc welding, argon arc welding, resistance welding and brazing. Large or complex welded structures should be annealed at 870℃ for 1h after fusion welding to eliminate welding stress.
4. The alloy must be machined after heat treatment. Due to the work hardening of the material, it is advisable to use a lower cutting speed and heavy feed than the processing of low-alloy standard austenitic stainless steel to be able to machine under the cold-work hardened surface.
Overview of Inconel 600 characteristics and application areas:
This alloy is a nickel-chromium-iron based solid solution strengthened alloy with good high temperature corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance, excellent cold and hot processing and welding performance, and satisfactory thermal strength and high plasticity below 700℃. The alloy can be strengthened by cold working, and can also be connected by resistance welding, fusion welding or brazing. It is suitable for making oxidation-resistant parts that bear low loads below 1100℃.
