Alloy 600 / 2.4816
Alloy 600 is a nickel-chrome-iron alloy which is characterized by:
- Good mechanical properties at low, room and elevated temperatures
- very good resistance to stress-corrosion cracking , even at elevated temperatures
- very good resistance to high-temperature corrosion in dry chlorine and hydrogen chloride
- Good resistance to oxidation, carburization and nitriding

Main fields of application of alloy 600
Alloy600 is versatile. Some Applications of Alloy 600 are:
- Furnace casing seals, fans and fittings - stable in furnace atmospheres
- vessels and heat exchanger tubes in the production of vinyl chloride
- components for the preparation of chlorinated and fluorinated hydrocarbons
- Tubes for pyrolysis-dichloroethylene – resistant to carburization, chlorine, hydrogen chloride and oxidation
- Production of caustic alkalis, particularly with existence of sulfur compounds
- In nuclear reactors for parts such as ducts for control rods, reactor vessels and seals, steam dryers and separators in boiling water reactors
- Transport rollers, nozzles and other fittings in industrial furnaces
- Metamorphosis from uranium oxide to tetrafluoride by hydrofluoric acid – stable against hydrofluoric acid
- Thermocouple Protection Tubes – resistant to carburizing and nitriding atmosphere
