TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Technical Specifications
Detailed technical information including chemical composition, mechanical properties, standards and available dimensions.
Chemical Composition
Nickel sits at 72.0% minimum inside the UNS N06600 window that ASTM B166 sets for this hex bar, with chromium held between 14.0% and 17.0%. Consequently, the iron-bearing balance of this hex bar keeps its matrix austenitic through repeated heating and cooling.
Importantly, the full composition table on the Inconel 600 material page lists every element against its ASTM B166 limit for this hex bar.
Mechanical Properties
The minimum room-temperature values below apply to UNS N06600 bar in the annealed and as-worked conditions per ASTM B166. The applicable condition and dimension govern final acceptance.
| Condition | Tensile Strength | Yield Strength, 0.2% Offset | Elongation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Cold-worked / hot-worked, annealed | ≥80 ksi (550 MPa) | ≥35 ksi (240 MPa) | ≥30% |
| Hot-worked, as worked | ≥85–95 ksi (585–655 MPa) | ≥35–45 ksi (240–310 MPa) | ≥20–30% |
| Cold-worked, as worked | ≥105–120 ksi (725–825 MPa) | ≥80–90 ksi (550–620 MPa) | ≥7–12% |
Physical Properties
Published references put the density of this hex bar near 8.47 g/cm³ and its melting range at 1370–1413 °C. Moreover, the solid-solution matrix keeps this hex bar non-magnetic right up to ambient temperature.
In addition, the physical properties table on the Inconel 600 material page carries the modulus, the thermal conductivity and the remaining design values behind this hex bar.
Heat Treatment
Inconel 600 hex bar is a solid-solution alloy, so annealing — not aging — sets its final softness. We supply the hex bar in the condition below that your application needs.
| Condition | Typical Treatment |
|---|---|
| Annealed | Held near 900–1050 °C (1650–1920 °F) per section size, then rapidly cooled |
| Stress Relieved | Available when specified for the application |
| Custom Condition | Heat treatment according to the agreed specification |
Standards
ASTM B166 is the principal UNS N06600 bar and rod document for this hex bar, issued by ASTM International. Moreover, ASME SB166 covers pressure equipment built from this hex bar while SAE AMS 5665 covers aerospace procurement.

Available hex bar dimensions depend on the manufacturing route, standard, material condition and order quantity. Please confirm your required hex bar size, section and length in the inquiry.
Surface Finishes
Therefore, the surface condition decides how this hex bar machines, feeds and resists scaling in service. Specifically, we agree the finish on this Inconel 600 hex bar with your order.
| Surface Condition | Typical Use |
|---|---|
| Hot Finished | As-hot-worked stock for hex bar, ordered where every face will be machined. |
| Cold Drawn | Close diameter control on this hex bar, with the drawing pass lifting strength. |
