PRODUCT OVERVIEW

About Inconel 601 Wire

Inconel 601 wire ships in UNS N06601, a nickel-chromium-iron alloy with 1.0 to 1.7% aluminium. Aluminium builds a sub-scale under the chromia layer of Inconel 601 wire, resisting spalling. As a result, this wire outlasts heat-resistant steels in furnace atmospheres.

We supply Inconel 601 wire to ASTM B166 and ASME SB166 in annealed, hot-finished and cold-drawn conditions. Every Inconel 601 wire order arrives with heat-number records and EN 10204 3.1 paperwork for incoming checks. Moreover, cut lengths and surface finishes for Inconel 601 wire are agreed before production starts.

Meanwhile, the full UNS N06601 chemistry behind Inconel 601 wire is set out on our Inconel 601 material page for cross-reference.

MANUFACTURING PROCESS

Reliable Production For Critical Applications

From charge weighing to spooling, Inconel 601 wire follows a controlled drawing route. We document each Inconel 601 wire stage against its heat number.

01

Charge Weighing

We weigh nickel, chromium and iron so the Inconel 601 wire melt meets UNS N06601 limits.

02

Primary Melting

First, we melt the charge and cast Inconel 601 wire electrode stock.

03

Hot Rolling to Rod

Next, hot rolling reduces the cast Inconel 601 wire into drawing rod.

04

Annealing and Descaling

Then, we anneal and descale the Inconel 601 wire rod before drawing begins.

05

Wire Drawing

After that, successive dies bring Inconel 601 wire down to the ordered diameter.

06

Final Anneal or Temper

Subsequently, we soften annealed Inconel 601 wire or hold cold work for temper.

07

Coiling and Packing

We wind Inconel 601 wire onto coils and spools with controlled layering.

08

Inspection and Release

Finally, we confirm Inconel 601 wire chemistry and strength, then issue the certificate.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION

Technical Specifications

Detailed technical information including chemical composition, mechanical properties, standards and available dimensions.

Chemical Composition

ASTM B166 sets 58.0–63.0% nickel and 21.0–25.0% chromium for UNS N06601, and it orders this wire to an aluminium band of 1.0–1.7%. Above all, that aluminium level is what builds the protective oxide on this wire at temperature.

Indeed, the full composition table on the Inconel 601 material page lists every element against its ASTM B166 limit for this wire.

Mechanical Properties

Typical room-temperature ranges for UNS N06601 wire appear below, drawn from published alloy references. The ordered temper and diameter decide the acceptance values for Inconel 601 wire.

Condition Tensile Strength Yield Strength, 0.2% Offset Elongation
Annealed 80–115 ksi (550–790 MPa) 30–60 ksi (205–415 MPa) 35–65%
Cold-drawn 120–205 ksi (825–1415 MPa) 100–195 ksi (690–1345 MPa) 3–20%
  • Spring-temper Inconel 601 wire reaches 180–210 ksi (1240–1448 MPa) in fine diameters per published wire data; yield values are quoted per diameter on request.

Physical Properties

Published references give this wire a density near 8.11 g/cm³, a melting range of 1360–1411 °C and an elastic modulus near 206 GPa. Moreover, the non-magnetic behaviour of this wire holds right through its working range.

In addition, the physical properties table on the Inconel 601 material page carries the electrical resistivity, the thermal expansion and the remaining design values behind this wire.

Delivery Conditions

Therefore, Inconel 601 wire ships in the delivery states below. Specifically, hot-rolled states supply drawing stock, while cold-drawn states are finished product wire.

Delivery State Typical Diameter Notes
Hot rolled wire rod 6.0–20.0 mm Drawing stock with mill scale, for redraw
Hot rolled, annealed 5.5–19 mm Coil form, softened for downstream forming
Hot rolled, annealed and pickled 5.5–19 mm Descaled to a bright surface
Cold drawn, annealed 0.2–12 mm Softest product wire, best ductility
Cold drawn, temper 0.2–12 mm Higher strength for screens and formed parts

Delivery note: hot-rolled states ship as coiled wire rod for redraw, while finished product wire ships per ASTM B166 in the annealed or cold-drawn state.

Standards

ASTM B166 is the principal UNS N06601 wire document for this wire, issued by ASTM International. Moreover, DIN 17753 and ISO 9724 serve European procurement of this wire.

Standard Product or Application
ASTM B166 Nickel-chromium-iron alloy rod, bar and wire
