    Inconel 601 Pipe Manufacturer

    Inconel 601 pipe (UNS N06601) is a high-performance nickel-chromium-iron alloy engineered for extreme high-temperature environments.It exhibits outstanding resistance to oxidation,carburization,and water corrosion.With its high creep rupture strength,this material is widely used in heat treatment,aerospace,and pollution control applications.Primary applications include furnace components and radiation tubes,where its 1-1.7% aluminum content imparts outstanding oxidation resistance.

    Our Capacity

    Inconel 601 seamless pipe typically conforms to ASTM B167 / ASME SB167;welded pipe conforms to ASTM B517 / ASME SB517.
    Kaysuns offers seamless pipe in sizes 1/2“ – 24” / 6 mm to 610 mm and welded pipe in sizes 6“ – 104” / 159 mm to 2800 mm.
    We provide integrated solutions by combining these products with others and accept small-batch orders.Equipped with state-of-the-art facilities and over 10 years of manufacturing expertise,we deliver with fast and flexible lead times.

    Chemical Composition of Inconel 601 Pipe, wt.%

    Why is The Aluminum Content So Important?

    • Synergistic Effect:
      Aluminum interacts with high chromium content to form an extremely stable aluminum oxide/chromium oxide film on the pipe surface,thereby protecting itself.
    • Anti-Spalling Properties:
      This film exhibits exceptional adhesion under extreme thermal cycling conditions (repeated heating and cooling),preventing thinning and damage to the metal surface caused by spalling.

    Comparison with Inconel 600

    If you are familiar with alloy 600 pipe,you will notice that alloy 601 has a slightly lower nickel content but increased aluminum and higher chromium content.This allows alloy 601 to withstand higher temperatures than alloy 600 in pure oxidizing environments,though it is slightly less resistant to reducing sulfur gases.

    Mechanical Properties of UNS N06601

    Tensile StrengthYield Strength (0.2% Offset)ElongationHardness (Max)
    ≥ 550 MPa(80,000 psi)≥ 205 MPa(30,000 psi)≥ 30%120 – 200 HB

    The true advantage of UNS N06601 lies in its stability at elevated temperatures. As temperatures rise, its strength decreases at a relatively slow rate.
    At 650°C (1200°F), tensile strength remains around 400 MPa.
    Under long-term loading at temperatures above 815°C (1500°F), Alloy 601 exhibits superior creep resistance compared to Alloy 600, owing to its stable aluminum-chromium oxide protective layer.

    W.Nr. 2.4851 Physical & Thermal Properties

    • Density:8.11 g/cm³ (0.293 lb/in³).
    • Melting Range:1360°C – 1411°C (2480°F – 2571°F).
    • Magnetic Permeability:Approximately 1.003 at 20°C, exhibiting non-magnetic properties.
    • Curie Temperature:<-196°C (-320°F),maintaining austenitic stability even at cryogenic temperatures.
    • Electrical Resistivity:1.19 µΩ·m (710 ohm-cir mil/ft) at 20°C.
    The thermal expansion coefficient of N06601 increases with rising temperature,necessitating consideration of thermal compensation during pipeline system design.

    Applications for Inconel 601 Pipe & Tube

    Common Questions About Inconel 601 Pipe

    Yes.It exhibits excellent weldability,with commonly used methods including GTAW (TIG) and GMAW (MIG).It is recommended to use Inconel 601 filler wire or Alloy 182 welding rod to ensure the weld’s oxidation resistance matches that of the base material.

    Because it possesses outstanding resistance to carburization.In carburizing furnaces,nitriding equipment,and carbonitriding environments,601 effectively blocks the penetration of carbon atoms,preventing material embrittlement.

    Generally.While it exhibits excellent oxidation resistance,its performance is weaker in highly reducing sulfidic environments.If significant sulfur is present in the environment,we recommend consulting our experts for evaluation or selecting an alloy with a higher silicon content.

    No.Inconel 601 is non-magnetic at room temperature.

    Yes.Inconel 601 maintains excellent impact toughness across an extremely wide temperature range,from cryogenic to ultra-high temperatures.
