Inconel 690 is a high-performance material known for its corrosion resistance. Standard stainless steel pipes and stainless steel pipe fittings often lack the durability needed, especially in corrosive environments. And that’s where Inconel 690 alloy offers an excellent solution.
What is Inconel 690 | UNS N06690 | GB/T 15059
Inconel 690 is a nickel-chromium-iron alloy. It is a solid solution strengthened material with a very high chromium content (27-31%), resulting in excellent wear resistance. It is resistant to oxidizing and reducing environments.

Key Strengths of Inconel 690
Inconel 690 alloys are resistant to a wide range of corrosive media, as well as oxidizing acids and high-purity water.
This alloy maintains its mechanical strength at high temperatures, providing reliable performance and resistance to creep deformation.
Its high nickel content prevents stress corrosion cracking and also prevents sudden brittle fracture.
Inconel 690 alloy is easy to mold and easy to weld. This simplifies the process of complex fabrication.
