Inconel 625

Material Data Sheet

Inconel 625 is a corrosion and oxidation resistant nickel alloy that is used both for both its high strength and its aqueous corrosion resistance. Its outstanding strength and toughness is derived from the stiffening effect of molybdenum and niobium on its nickel-chromium matrix. Although the alloy was developed for high-temperature strength, its highly alloyed composition also provides a significant level of general corrosion resistance. This alloy resists a wide range of severely corrosive environments and is especially resistant to pitting and crevice corrosion.

 Inconel 625 has excellent fatigue strength and stress-corrosion cracking resistance to chloride ions.

Some typical applications for Inconel 625 include chemical processing, aerospace, & marine engineering, pollution-control equipment, and nuclear reactors.
