PRODUCT OVERVIEW
About Inconel 625 Pipe and Tube
Inconel 625 pipe and tube is supplied in UNS N06625 / Werkstoff 2.4856, a nickel-chromium-molybdenum-niobium grade strengthened by solid-solution hardening. Seamless runs to ASTM B444, welded pipe to B705, and welded tube to B704. As a result, duty spans sour-gas tubing, seawater lines, and scrubbers.
Buyers normally arrive here after comparing Grade 1 against Grade 2 for the service temperature. The full chemistry, standards, and grade logic sit on the Inconel 625 material page, while bar and rod and plate and sheet supply are covered on their own form pages.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Key Features of Inconel 625 Pipe and Tube
UNS N06625 seamless pipe and tube is supplied to ASTM B444 / ASME SB444, welded pipe to ASTM B705, and welded tube to ASTM B704. Sizes run from exchanger tubing to large FGD pipe, with both grades and EN 10204 3.1 certificates. NACE MR0175 aligned documentation supports downhole and sour-gas review, with seamless, welded, and fitting supply quoted from one inquiry.

WHY CHOOSE US
Why Choose Inconel 625
Ordering pipe through Southerly Alloy puts the specification check before the quotation. Standard, grade, size, and testing are confirmed against your line conditions first. Then, production runs with the partner mill responsible for melting and forming, and the certificate names the producing heat.
01
Application-First Review
Service temperature, medium, and code jurisdiction decide seamless versus welded before price does.
02
Mill-Linked Traceability
Every length carries heat-number documentation back through the producing plant.
03
Testing to Order
Eddy current, hydrostatic, UT, and PMI are scoped to the purchase line, not sold as extras.
04
Project-Ready Export
Bundling, beveling, and shipping documents are prepared for site delivery schedules.
MANUFACTURING PROCESS
Reliable Production For Critical Applications

Chemical Composition
The chemistry window below is common to B444, B705, and B704 product for UNS N06625. However, the governing purchase specification takes precedence for acceptance.
| Element | Content |
|---|---|
| Nickel (Ni) | Balance |
| Chromium (Cr) | 20.0–23.0% |
| Molybdenum (Mo) | 8.0–10.0% |
| Niobium + Tantalum (Nb + Ta) | 3.15–4.15% |
| Iron (Fe) | 5.00% max. |
| Cobalt (Co) | 1.00% max. |
| Carbon (C) | 0.10% max. |
| Manganese (Mn) | 0.50% max. |
| Silicon (Si) | 0.50% max. |
| Phosphorus (P) | 0.015% max. |
| Sulfur (S) | 0.015% max. |
| Aluminum (Al) | 0.40% max. |
| Titanium (Ti) | 0.40% max. |
Mechanical Properties
Minimum room-temperature tensile values are identical across the three tubular standards at each grade. First, Grade 1 is annealed at 871 °C (1600 °F) minimum. By contrast, Grade 2 is solution annealed at 1093 °C (2000 °F) minimum for creep-limited duty.
| Product Form | Standard | Condition / Grade | Tensile Strength | Yield Strength, 0.2% Offset | Elongation |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Seamless pipe and tube | ASTM B444 | Grade 1 | ≥827 MPa (120 ksi) | ≥414 MPa (60 ksi) | ≥30% |
| Seamless pipe and tube | ASTM B444 | Grade 2 | ≥690 MPa (100 ksi) | ≥276 MPa (40 ksi) | ≥30% |
| Welded pipe | ASTM B705 | Grade 1 | ≥827 MPa (120 ksi) | ≥414 MPa (60 ksi) | ≥30% |
| Welded pipe | ASTM B705 | Grade 2 | ≥690 MPa (100 ksi) | ≥276 MPa (40 ksi) | ≥30% |
| Welded tube | ASTM B704 | Grade 1 | ≥827 MPa (120 ksi) | ≥414 MPa (60 ksi) | ≥30% |
| Welded tube | ASTM B704 | Grade 2 | ≥690 MPa (100 ksi) | ≥276 MPa (40 ksi) | ≥30% |
Grade 2 carries lower room-temperature minimums because the higher solution-annealing temperature coarsens the grain in exchange for creep resistance. The ordered grade and standard govern final acceptance.

FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Which ASTM specification applies to each Inconel 625 tubular form?
ASTM B444 covers seamless pipe and tube, B705 welded pipe, and B704 welded tube. In other words, the three are not interchangeable — the route is fixed by the ordered standard.
How do Grade 1 and Grade 2 pipe differ?
Grade 1 is annealed at 871 °C (1600 °F) minimum and carries higher room-temperature minimums. By contrast, Grade 2 is solution annealed at 1093 °C (2000 °F) minimum for creep-limited service above about 593 °C.
Is Inconel 625 pipe suitable for sour service?
Yes. The grade chemistry supports NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 qualification. As a result, sour-service orders receive chemistry, hardness, and traceability records compiled for review.
Can Inconel 625 pipe be field welded?
Yes. Spool and butt welds use ERNiCrMo-3 filler without preheat. Moreover, post-weld heat treatment is generally not required for the grade.
How is Inconel 625 pipe priced?
Inconel 625 pipe is typically priced by weight (kg). The final price depends on the nickel surcharge, pipe dimensions, manufacturing route, testing scope, quantity, and required delivery terms. The applicable Incoterm is stated on every quotation.
What is your MOQ for Inconel 625 pipe?
Single-length orders are available for stocked OD and wall combinations.
What are your trade terms for Inconel 625 pipe?
FOB is quoted as standard, with EXW, CIF, and DAP available against confirmed destinations.
What is the lead time for Inconel 625 pipe and tube?
Stocked sizes ship in 7-15 days. Meanwhile, production lengths are scheduled against mill availability.
Do you provide EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2 certificates?
Yes — 3.1 mill test certificates are standard on every delivery. Moreover, 3.2 certification with third-party endorsement can be arranged on request.
REQUEST FOR QUOTATION
