Inconel
Inconel alloys are generally known for their resistance to oxidation and their ability to maintain their structural integrity in high temperature atmospheres. There are several Inconel alloys that are used in applications that require a material that does not easily succumb to caustic corrosion, corrosion caused by high purity water, and stress-corrosion cracking. While each variation of Inconel has unique traits that make it effective in different circumstances, the majority of the alloys are used frequently in the chemical industry.
Inconel 601 is a nickel-chromium alloy that has additions of aluminum. These additions increase its resistance to oxidation and various forms of corrosion. This has made Inconel 601 a common material in heat treating equipment, furnaces, and gas-turbine components. Inconel 690 has a similar makeup to 601, but it is considered a high chromium-nickel alloy. The high chromium content in 690 makes it especially resistant to corrosion that occurs from salts, oxidizing acids, and other elements commonly found in aqueous environments.
Inconel 625 differs from many of the other Inconel alloys because its composition includes substantial amounts of nickel, chromium, and molybdenum. It also has an addition of niobium. The result is an alloy that possesses high levels of strength without ever having to go through a strengthening heat treatment. Inconel 625 is especially effective at resisting crevice corrosion, making it a chosen material in the aerospace and marine engineering industries.

Inconel 690
The Inconel alloys consist mainly of a group of metal alloys that offer high resistance to corrosive materials and environments. Inconel 690 falls into this category. However, unlike some of the other alloys in the group, it is a high-chromium and nickel alloy. The high-chromium element of the alloy gives it a particularly strong resistance to corrosion that occurs in aqueous atmospheres. Generally, this corrosion occurs as oxidizing acids and salts break a material down. Along with its ability to resist these stresses, Inconel 690 can also withstand the sulfidation that takes place at extremely high temperatures.
Along with its resistance to corrosives, Inconel 690 possesses strong metallurgical stability which allows it to maintain structural integrity in a wide range of applications. It also has a high level of strength and possesses fabrication traits that enable it to be used in a number of different settings. All of these aspects of Inconel 690 have made it a versatile alloy that has found use in a range of industries.
When you are in the market for Inconel 690, you will find your best chances of getting exactly what you need lie with companies that offer a variety of shapes and designs of the alloy. Unfortunately, this is not common among many of the leading distributors in the industry.

It contains substantial levels of iron, molybdenum, and niobium as well as trace amounts of titanium and aluminum.
Its makeup allows for an ease of welding that is not matched by the majority of Inconel alloys. It also allows Inconel 718 to combine anti-corrosive elements with a high level of strength and flexibility. Inconel 718 is particularly resistant to post-weld cracking, and it can maintain its structure in both high-temperature and aqueous environments. In fact, it will maintain superb creep-rupture strength at temperatures as high as 1,300?F.
The unique qualities of Inconel 718 have caused it to be used in industries and applications where other Inconel alloys simply would not be effective. You will find it in nuclear reactors, spacecraft, and rocket motors. However, it does have more common applications, as well. It can be very effective in tooling and gas turbines. There is also a version of the alloy (718 SPF) that is used specifically for super-plastic forming.
Inconel 718 is difficult to find in any form, let alone in a customized design.
