Special AlloysSheet/Plate
Description (English)
Inconel 625 is supplied in two main conditions: Grade 1 (annealed, soft) andGrade 2 (solution annealed, AMS 5599). The alloy is non-magnetic, spark-resistant, and weldable by all conventional methods without susceptibility to cracking. It is widely used in chemical processing, marine engineering, aerospace, nuclear, oil & gas, and pollution-control applications where a combination of high strength and superior corrosion resistance is required.The alloy is especially well suited for seawater, sour service, wet chlorine,oxidizing acids, and high-purity nuclear environments.
