Inconel 686 Sheet

Inconel 686 Sheet About

Inconel 686 Sheet is composed of Nickel, Chromium, and Iron but contains other elements at smaller concentrations, such as Aluminium, Titanium, Copper, and Manganese. It has excellent corrosion resistance and is resistant to high temperatures due to its outstanding strength-to-weight ratio. Therefore, Inconel 686 Sheet is often used in applications involving pressure vessels operating with oxidizing acids or reducing agents, marine atmospheres, and hot sulphuric acid fumes. This magnetic alloy exhibits a combination of properties that make it an exceptionally versatile material for multiple industries.

Outstanding Corrosion Resistance

Inconel 686 sheets provide excellent protection against both general and localized corrosion, including resistance to pitting and crevice attacks. Their advanced composition makes them ideal for use in highly corrosive environments, ensuring the longevity and reliability of equipment. This attribute is well-suited for industries where chemical, marine, or atmospheric exposure is a concern.


Versatile Mechanical Properties

With a high minimum tensile strength of 790 MPa, a yield strength of 355 MPa, and elongation of at least 30% in 50 mm, Inconel 686 sheets combine strength with ductility. Their hardness falls within Rockwell B85 to B94. These properties, alongside excellent formability and consistent tolerances of 0.02 mm, make them suitable for applications where mechanical durability is crucial.


Wide Range of Dimensions & Finishes

Offered in widths up to 2000 mm, lengths up to 6000 mm, and thicknesses from 0.5 mm to 50 mm, Inconel 686 sheets are available in various finishes such as 2B, BA, No.1, No.4, mirror, and matt. This versatility ensures they can be tailored to the specific requirements of myriad industrial projects, from structural components to specialized equipment.
