Alloy 625
A nickel-chromium-molybdenum alloy (UNS N06625, Inconel 625) with exceptional strength, corrosion resistance, and high-temperature capabilities up to 980C.
Alloy 625 (Inconel 625)
Alloy 625 derives its strength from the solid solution effects of molybdenum and niobium in a nickel-chromium matrix. It has excellent fatigue strength and stress corrosion cracking resistance.
Composition
- Nickel: 58% min
- Chromium: 20-23%
- Molybdenum: 8-10%
- Niobium: 3.15-4.15%
Applications
Aerospace, marine, chemical processing, nuclear reactors, flue gas desulfurization, and oil & gas wellhead components.
