An alloy is simply a metal made from more than one element. There is variety of alloys and each alloy has its own specific chemical and mechanical properties. The alloys made finished products have certain properties that pure metal does not contain. By combining these metals, one can achieve the better substance through certain procedures. The Aluminium, stainless steel, titanium, copper and nickel based alloys are commonly used in different industries.

The below given various nickel alloys are used in different applications depending on their resistance ability at elevated temperatures, strength, toughness and other properties.

ALLOY 600

ALLOY 600 is a nickel-chromium-iron alloy and used in typical applications like jet engines, steam generators, spark electrodes, furnace retort seals, food and chemical processing. It offers high resistant to corrosion and heat, excellent mechanical properties, high strength and good workability.

ALLOY 601

ALLOY 601 has better oxidation resistant, reduces environments, and possesses high temperature strength and good carbonization resistant. This nickel-chromium alloy is widely used in electronic components, industrial furnaces and thermocouple protection tubes.

ALLOY 625

Due to excellent resistance to oxidation and corrosion, ALLOY 625 is used in a wide spectrum of applications like in seawater applications, aerospace industry, heat exchangers, and nuclear reactors. The nickel based alloy has good resistance to alkalis and organic acids, exhibits excellent strength and toughness at high temperatures.

ALLOY DS

ALLOY DS is a nickel-chromium-iron alloy and used for furnace parts, heat treatment and vitreous enameling equipment. ALLOY DS is available in standard product forms such as round, plate, sheet, strip, tube, pipe, and wire. Like other nickel alloys, it also possesses good oxidation and corrosion resistant.

ALLOY 330

ALLOY 330 remains stable during long-time exposure to high temperature. ALLOY 330 can be readily fabricated using standard procedures for stainless steel and nickel alloys. It is used for industrial heating furnaces, cyanide salt pots, retorts and muffles.

ALLOY C276

ALLOY C276 has universal corrosion resistance and greater fabricability and can be hot and cold by conventional procedures. ALLOY C276 are resistant to wet chloride gas, hypochlorite, chlorine dioxide solutions and maintains high strength at room temperatures. It is widely used in sulfuric acid reactors, heat exchangers, Sour gas wells and reaction vessels.

ALLOY 602CA

ALLOY 602CA has resistance to oxidation at higher temperatures, even under cyclic conditions. This nickel based alloy due to its high strength and high temperature used for furnace construction and industrial engineering. It has excellent creep rupture strength.

ALLOY 690

ALLOY 690 is a high-chromium nickel alloy and exhibits excellent resistance to oxidation and high-temperature atmospheres. Due to its high strength and good metallurgical stability, ALLOY 690 is used widely in nuclear power, chemicals, heat-treatment and electronics industries.
