About the alloy
A nickel alloy for heat and chlorides
HAGUE FASTENERS makes Inconel 600 fasteners in the UK, from single prototypes to batches of several hundred. Alloy 600 is a nickel-chromium-iron alloy with at least 72% nickel, which gives it strong resistance to chloride stress corrosion cracking, caustic media and oxidation at high temperature.
It is non-magnetic, readily weldable and has a good combination of strength and workability. It is not age hardenable, so its strength comes from the annealed or cold worked condition. Engineers specify it where stainless steel would fail but the very high strength of Inconel 718 is not needed. See all Inconel alloys.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
What are Inconel 600 fasteners used for?
Inconel 600 fasteners are used where heat, oxidation or chloride stress corrosion would defeat stainless steel. Typical uses are furnace fixtures, heat treatment equipment and chemical plant.
Can Inconel 600 be heat treated for higher strength?
No. Alloy 600 cannot be hardened by heat treatment, and higher strength comes from cold work. Where a stronger nickel alloy bolt is needed, Inconel 718 or X750 is usually considered.
Is Inconel 600 magnetic?
No. Alloy 600 is a non-magnetic nickel alloy.
What is the equivalent of Inconel 600?
Inconel 600 is also known as Alloy 600, UNS N06600 and W.Nr. 2.4816. The full list of designations is shown above.
