Monel 600 Oxidation Resistant Alloy Pipe

Nickel-Chromium Alloy | UNS N06600 (Alloy 600) | Oxidation Resistance to 1100°C

ASTM B167 | ASME SB167 | High-Temp & Caustic Grade

Introduction

Monel 600 Oxidation Resistant Alloy Pipe is a trade-name shorthand widely used in the market for Alloy 600, formally UNS N06600 and also sold as Inconel 600. It is a nickel-chromium alloy rather than a nickel-copper Monel: at least 72% nickel with 14-17% chromium and 6-10% iron. High nickel makes the alloy immune to chloride stress corrosion cracking, and the chromium gives scale resistance, so it works in two areas where stainless steel is weak: hot oxidizing gases and hot concentrated caustic solutions.

In air the alloy resists oxidation to about 1100°C, and it keeps useful strength and ductility from cryogenic temperatures up to roughly 650°C. Seamless pipe made to ASTM B167 in the annealed condition has a minimum tensile strength of 550 MPa, yield strength of 240 MPa and elongation of 30%. It is not hardened by heat treatment, only by cold work. Carbon is held low and a stabilizing anneal is common to limit chromium carbide precipitation. Resistance to sulfur-free high-temperature gases is excellent, but sulfur-bearing atmospheres above about 315°C can cause intergranular attack and should be avoided.

Typical applications include furnace muffles and retorts, heat-treatment baskets, thermocouple sheaths, chemical process piping for hot chlorinated organics and caustic soda evaporators, and nuclear steam generator tubing in older plants. In pressurized-water nuclear service Alloy 600 showed primary water stress corrosion cracking, which led to replacement by higher-chromium Alloy 690 in newer designs, so material choice should follow the process medium. Welding uses matching nickel-chromium filler such as ERNiCr-3, and no post-weld heat treatment is normally required.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Monel 600 the same as Alloy 600?
In the market the name is often used loosely; the alloy is formally Alloy 600 or Inconel 600, a nickel-chromium material, not nickel-copper Monel.
What is its maximum oxidation temperature?
About 1100°C in air.
Can it resist chlorides?
Yes, it is immune to chloride stress corrosion cracking.
Is it good in hot caustic?
Yes, it is widely used for caustic soda evaporators.
What atmosphere should be avoided?
Sulfur-bearing gases above about 315°C.
Does it need post-weld heat treatment?
Normally not.
