For welded wire mesh rolls 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 Welded Wire Mesh Rolls
The high-temperature furnace and hot-gas filtration alloy. For welded wire mesh rolls, 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 welded wire mesh rolls 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.
Cleaning & Compatibility
Special alloys tolerate aggressive cleaning chemistry, but confirm the specific acid/alkali against the alloy datasheet — e.g. Monel handles HF but not oxidizing nitric; titanium handles nitric but not HF. When welding elements into frames, use matching filler and inert-gas backing to preserve corrosion resistance at the joint.
