The excellent strength at elevated temperatures enables lighter designs for improved fuel efficiency. Parts maintain dimensional stability even under thermal cycling seen in turbine engines.

Inconel 625 powder also builds high strength airframe and landing gear components as well as cryogenic parts for space applications.

Olja och gas

For oil and gas drilling, Inconel 625 offers exceptional corrosion resistance against brines, H2S gas, and solids. It withstands pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking.

Components like downhole tubing, wellhead parts, valves, pumps, and piping systems are constructed from Inconel 625 powder to ensure reliability under extreme subsurface conditions of high pressure, corrosion, and erosion.

The hardness, strength, and workability supports long service life for drilling equipment and completions.

Kemisk bearbetning

In chemical processing, Inconel 625 provides unparalleled performance in coping with corrosive environments containing alkalies, halogens, mineral acids, salts, and wet atmospheres with sulfur compounds like SO2.

It resists corrosion cracking and localized attack in the demanding conditions seen in heat exchangers, columns, evaporators, and reactors across industries.

Inconel 625 is the #1 choice for handling acids that destroy other metals rapidly including hydrogen fluoride, phosphoric, sulfuric, nitric, organic acids.

Parts like valves, pumps, and piping are constructed to ensure safety and prevent dangerous leaks.

Kraftgenerering

For coal-fired and nuclear power plants, Inconel 625 handles high pressure and temperature fluids alongside emissions containing fly ash, SOx, NOx, and other corrosives that destroy ordinary materials.

Components like heat exchanger tubing, ducting, fuel rods and reactor internals rely on Inconel 625 powder to retain strength and corrosion resistance for the service life spanning decades.
