For five-heddle weave mesh in Inconel 600, the controlling selection factors are the media being filtered, the cleaning regime and the service temperature. The grade data for Inconel 600 is summarized below together with every specification supplied.
Why Choose Inconel 600 for Five-Heddle Weave Mesh
The high-temperature furnace and hot-gas filtration alloy. For five-heddle weave mesh, this matters when excellent oxidation resistance at extreme temperature is the controlling requirement.
Alloy Properties
| Grade designation | UNS N06600 (2.4816) |
|---|---|
| Magnetic response | Essentially non-magnetic |
| Service temperature | approx. +1000 °C (short excursions higher) |
| Corrosion characteristic | Excellent oxidation resistance at extreme temperature |
Corrosion Behavior in Filtration Service
Nickel-family alloys are specified for five-heddle weave mesh when stainless is not enough: Monel 400 for seawater and hydrofluoric acid, Inconel 600 for oxidation at extreme temperature, Hastelloy C-276 for hot chlorides and mixed acids, titanium for chlorides with weight savings. Match the alloy to the specific chemistry — they are not interchangeable.
Comparable Alloys
Between the special alloys, selection is chemistry-led: Monel 400 (HF, seawater), Inconel 600 (heat/oxidation), Hastelloy C-276 (broadest acid resistance), nickel 200 (caustic), titanium (chlorides, weight). 316L remains the cost benchmark — specify a special alloy only when the datasheet chemistry demands it.
