Inconel 600
Inconel nickel-chromium-iron alloy 600 is a engineering material which require resistance to corrosion and heat. The alloy also has superb mechanical properties and presents the desirable combination of high strength and good workability. The high amount of nickel content gives the alloy resistance to corrosion by many organic and inorganic compounds and also makes it virtually immune to chloride-ion stress-corrosion cracking. Chromium confers resistance to sulfur compounds and also provides resistance to oxidizing conditions at high temperatures or in corrosive solutions. The alloy is not precipitation hardenable, it is strengthened and hardened only by cold work.
The Inconel alloy 600 is versatility has led to its use in a variety of manufaturing applications involving temperatures from cryogenic to above 2000F. The alloy is used extensively in the chemical industry like pharmacutical for its strength and corrosion resistance. Applications include bubble towers, stills, heaters, and condensers for processing of bubble towers, fatting acids, evaporator tubes, tube sheets, and flaking trays for the manufacture of sodium sulfid, and equipment for handling abietic acid in the manufacture of paper pulp.
The alloy's strength and oxidation resistance at high temperatures make it useful for many applications in the heat treating industry. It is used for retorts, muffles, roller hearths, and other furnace components and for heat treating baskets and trays. In the aeronautical field, alloy 600 material is used for a variety of engine and airframe components, which must withstand high temperatures. Examples are lock wire, exhaust liners, and turbine seals.
The alloy is also a standard material of constructing nuclear reactors. It has excellent resistance to corrosion by high purity water, and no indication of chloride-ion stress-corrosion cracking in reactor water systems has been detected. For nuclear applications, the alloy is produced to exacting specifications and is designated Inconel alloy 600T.

Inconel 800
Incoloy alloy 800 is a widely used material of construction for equipment that must have high strength and resist carburization,oxidation and other harmful effects of high-temperature exposure. (For high temperature applications requiring optimum rupture and creep properties, Incoloy alloys 800H and 800HT are used). The chromium in the alloy imparts resistance to oxidation and corrosion. The high percentage of nickel maintains an austenitic structure so that the alloy is ductile. the nickel content also contributes general corrosion, resistance to scaling and stress-corrosion cracking.
Incoloy alloy 800 is used in a variety of applications involving exposure to high temperatures and corrosive environments. It is used for heat-treating equipment such as baskets, trays and fixtures. In chemical and petrochemical processing the alloy is used for heat exchangers and other piping systems in nitric acid media especially where resistance to chloride stress-corrosion cracking is required. In nuclear power plants, it is used for steam-generator tubing. The alloy is often used in home appliances for sheathing of electric heating elements. In the production of paper pulp, digester liquid heaters are often made of alloy 800. In petroleum processing , the alloy is used for heat exchangers that air-cool the process stream.
