INCONEL® nickel-chromium-iron alloy 601 (UNS
N06601/W.Nr. 2.4851) is a general-purpose engineering
material for applications that require resistance to heat
and corrosion. An outstanding characteristic of
INCONEL alloy 601 is its resistance to high-
temperature oxidation. The alloy also has good
resistance to aqueous corrosion, has high mechanical
strength, and is readily formed, machined and welded.
The limiting chemical composition of INCONEL alloy
601 is listed in Table 1. The composition is a face-
centered-cubic solid solution with a high degree of
metallurgical stability. The alloy's nickel base, in
conjunction with substantial chromium content,
provides resistance to many corrosive media and high-
temperature environments. Oxidation resistance is
further enhanced by the aluminum content.
The properties of INCONEL alloy 601 make it a
material of broad utility in such fields as thermal
processing, chemical processing, pollution control,
aerospace, and power generation.
Alloy 601 is a standard material of construction for
various types of thermal-processing equipment.
Industrial-heating applications include baskets, trays,
and fixtures for annealing, carburizing, carbonitriding,
nitriding and other heat-treating operations. In
industrial furnaces, the alloy is used for radiant tubes,
muffles, retorts, flame shields, strand-annealing tubes,
woven-wire conveyor belts, chain curtains, burner
nozzles, and electrical resistance heating elements.
Other thermal-processing applications are
thermocouple protection tubes, furnace-atmosphere
generators, and infrared radiant screens.
Chemical-processing applications for alloy 601
include process heaters, condenser tubes in sour-water
strippers, and insulating cans in ammonia reformers.
The alloy is also used for combustor components and
catalyst grid supports in equipment for nitric acid
production.
In petrochemical processing, the alloy is used for
catalyst regenerators and air preheaters in the
manufacture of high-density polyethylene.
In pollution-control applications, INCONEL alloy
601 is used for thermal reactors in exhaust systems of
gasoline engines and for combustion chambers in solid-
waste incinerators.
In the power-generation field, alloy 601 is used for
superheater tube supports, grid barriers, and ash-
handling systems.
The alloy is also used for jet-engine igniters and for
combustion-can liners, diffuser assembles, and
containment rings in gas turbines for aircraft, industrial,
and vehicular applications.

of INCONEL alloy 601
Some physical constants for INCONEL alloy 601 are listed
in Table 2. Thermal and electrical properties at room and
elevated temperatures are given in Table 3. Values shown
for thermal conductivity were calculated from
measurements of electrical resistivity. Specific-heat values
were calculated from chemical composition.
Thermal-expansion coefficients were determined on a
Leitz dilatometer; values were corrected for expansion of
the quartz specimen holder. Each coefficient listed is the
average coefficient over the indicated temperature range.
The effect of temperature on the modulus of elasticity
of alloy 601 is shown in Table 4. The data were obtained by
the dynamic method. The values listed for Poisson's ratio
were calculated from moduli of elasticity.
All data reported for physical constants and thermal
properties were determined for annealed material.

TTaabbllee 33 - Thermal Properties of INCONEL alloy 601
INCONEL alloy 601 has good mechanical strength.
Nominal mechanical-property ranges for various
products are shown in Table 5. As indicated by those
values, the strength level exhibited by the alloy varies
with the form and condition of the material.
The optimum condition for alloy 601 depends on
the type of application and the service temperature
involved. In general, the solution-treated condition is
used for rupture-limited applications (temperatures
of about 1000°F (540°C) and higher). The annealed
condition is normally used for tensile-limited
applications (temperatures below about 1000°F
(540°C)).

INCONEL alloy 601 is not embrittled by extended exposure to high temperatures. Table 10 shows the impact strength of the
alloy after long-time exposure to temperatures from 1000 to 1600°F (540 to 870°C). The specimens retained relatively high
impact strengths even after 1000 hr of exposure. The material tested was solution-treated 0.625-in. (16-mm) diameter hot-

The results of Charpy V-notch impact tests on hot-finished rod in the annealed and solution-treated conditions are given

The rotating-beam fatigue strength of INCONEL alloy 601
in two conditions is shown in Figure 2. As indicated by the
curves, annealed material has higher fatigue strength than
solution-treated material.
The data for annealed material in Figure 2 were
determined on 0.500-in. (13-mm) diameter hot-finished rod
given an annealing treatment of 1800°F (980°C)/1 hr, A.C.
The material had a hardness of 89 Rb, a grain size of ASTM
8, and the following tensile properties:
Tensile Strength, 113.8 ksi (785 MPa)
Yield Strength (0.2% Offset), 60.1 ksi (414 MPa)
Elongation, 41%
The solution-treated material used to establish Figure 2
was 0.500-in. (13-mm) hot-finished rod heat-treated at
2200°F (1200°C)/1 hr, A.C. The material had a hardness of
64 Rb, a grain size of ASTM 2, and tensile properties of:
Tensile Strength, 90.1 ksi (621 MPa)
Yield Strength (0.2% Offset), 29.9 ksi (206 MPa)
Elongation, 61%
The results of cantilever-beam fatigue tests on annealed
(1900°F) (1040°C) cold-rolled sheet are given in Figure 3.
Transverse specimens having a hardness of 86 Rb and a
grain size of ASTM 8 were used for the tests. Tensile
properties were:
Tensile Strength, 111 ksi (765 MPa)
Yield Strength (0.2% Offset) 59.5 ksi (410 MPa)
Elongation, 36%
Low-cycle fatigue properties of INCONEL alloy 601 at
room temperature and 1400°F (760°C) are shown in Figure
4. The material tested was 0.125 in. x 2.0 in. (3.2 mm x 51
mm) hot-finished flat. The curves represent both annealed
and solution-treated material.

INCONEL alloy 601 has good creep-
rupture strength, and the alloy is widely used
for equipment that must withstand extended
exposure to high temperatures. The alloy's
usefulness for such applications is increased
by its resistance to oxidation and other forms
of high-temperature corrosion.
The rupture strength of solution-treated
alloy 601 at various temperatures is illustrated
by the Larson-Miller parameter presentation
in Figure 5. Creep properties of the alloy at
temperatures to 2000°F (1090°C) are shown
in Figure 6. Rupture life of solution-treated
material at various stresses and temperatures
is shown in Figure 7. All creep and rupture
properties were determined for material given
a heat treatment of 2100°F (1150°C)/1 hr,
A.C.
