• Yield Strength (Rp0.2): ≥340 MPa
• Elongation (A): ≥30%
• Hardness: HB ≤240

5. Key Material Characteristics

1. Excellent High-Temperature Oxidation & Carburization Resistance

    

   Combined Cr-Al oxide coating delivers ultra-low oxidation rate in air at 1000 °C; far superior to Inconel 600 / 601 against carburization and high-temperature sulfidation (H₂S / SO₂ flue gas).
    
2. Superior High-Temperature Creep & Thermal Fatigue Resistance

    

   Dual solid-solution strengthening by Co & Mo plus γ' precipitation hardening; resists deformation and cracking under cyclic thermal shock and long-term high-temperature loading.
    
3. Balanced Wet & Dry Corrosion Performance
    

• Stable in high-temperature flue gas, carburizing & sulfiding environments;
• Resistant to nitric acid, phosphoric acid, chloride media at ambient & moderate temperatures; high resistance to stress corrosion cracking (SCC).

4. Good Formability & Weldability
    
   Suitable for hot/cold rolling, forging and stamping. Matching filler metal: ERNiCrCoMo-1 (2.4675). Excellent TIG/MIG welding performance; no post-weld heat treatment required to retain high-temperature mechanical properties.

6. Typical Applications

Aerospace Gas Turbines

Thermal & Gas Power Generation

Nuclear Energy (High-Temperature Helium-Cooled Reactors)

Petrochemical Industry

Heat Treatment & Industrial Furnace Equipment

New Energy

7. Heat Treatment (Standard Delivery Condition)

8. Comparison with Similar Alloys

1. UNS N06600 (Inconel 600): No Co/Mo; poor high-temperature creep performance, limited service below 800°C
2. UNS N06601: Low Mo, no Co; good oxidation resistance but insufficient high-temperature strength
3. Haynes 230 (UNS N06230): No Co/Al; inferior oxidation and creep properties vs N06617
4. UNS N06617: Balanced high-temperature strength, oxidation resistance and sulfidation resistance; preferred nickel alloy for service above 1000°C
