Gas Appliance Burner & Flame Arrestor Mesh in Inconel 600 (UNS N06600 (2.4816)) is used for forming the flame surface of premix gas burners and the flashback screens inside gas appliances. The alloy gives excellent oxidation resistance at extreme temperature and is essentially non-magnetic, with a practical service limit of approx. +1000 °C (short excursions higher).
