ASTM B167 Inconel 600 Annealed Seamless Steel Tube
ASTM B167 Inconel 600 annealed seamless steel tube is a nickel-chromium alloy suitable for applications requiring high temperatures, high strength, and excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in harsh chemical and oxidizing environments. The "annealed" condition provides maximum plasticity and stress release, while the "seamless" design ensures low surface roughness and high-pressure sealing performance. Its key advantages include resistance to stress corrosion cracking, high strength from low temperatures up to 2000°F (approximately 1093°C), and good weldability and mechanical properties.
What are the standard pipe materials for Inconel 600?
These pipe materials conform to ASTM B167, B829, and B517 standards. Sizes vary depending on the ASTM, ASME, and API standards. Seamless Inconel 600 pipes range in diameter from 4mm to 219mm, while welded and arc-welded pipes range in diameter from 5mm to 1219.2mm, with wall thicknesses ranging from 0.5mm to 20mm.
