An Inconel 600 anchor flange is a forged ring welded into a pipeline to fix it to a structure, made from Inconel 600 to ASTM B564. Anchor flanges restrain pipelines against thrust and movement — at pump stations, river crossings and pig traps. They are made to project drawings.

When to Choose an Anchor Flange
Anchor flanges restrain pipelines against thrust and movement — at pump stations, river crossings and pig traps. They are made to project drawings.
- Made to drawing
- Usually weld neck on both sides
- Often large and heavy forgings

Inconel 600 Anchor Flange: Why 600 for anchor flanges
Anchor flanges restrain pipelines against thrust and movement — at pump stations, river crossings and pig traps. They are made to project drawings. In Inconel 600, the choice usually comes down to the medium and temperature — the rows here are the points buyers check for this exact combination.
| Why this grade | Nickel-alloy flanges are used where acids, chlorides or heat defeat stainless. Inconel 600 is picked for high-temperature oxidation, caustic and nuclear service. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | Furnaces & heat treating — Muffles, retorts and radiant tubes. |
| B16.5 material group | 3.5 |
| Bolting | B7 (coated), B8M or nickel-alloy studs in Inconel 600 (bar to ASTM B166, where applicable), as the project specifies |
| Welding to carbon steel | A nickel-base filler such as ERNiCr-3 (or ERNiCrMo-3) is used when joining it to carbon steel |
| Matching filler | ERNiCr-3 (AWS A5.14) |

Inconel 600 Anchor Flange — questions buyers ask
What information is needed to quote an anchor flange?
The project drawing with pipe size, wall, design loads and material, plus the inspection plan.
What pressure rating does a Inconel 600 anchor flange have?
It depends on class and temperature. Inconel 600 forgings are in ASME B16.5 material group 3.5; read your class column in that group's table at the design temperature.
Can Inconel 600 anchor flanges be welded to carbon steel?
Yes — a nickel-base filler such as ERNiCr-3 (or ERNiCrMo-3) is used when joining it to carbon steel.
Which standard covers Inconel 600 anchor flanges?
The material is ASTM B564; dimensions follow Project drawing. Always state both on your purchase order, with the edition if your project specifies one.
What decides the price of a Inconel 600 anchor flange?
The alloy price, the size and pressure class, quantity, and the testing and documents required. Send your list and we quote the same working day.
What documents do you supply?
EN 10204 3.1 or 3.2 certificates available on request / as specified in the PO; dimensional reports as required. PMI can be arranged depending on product and requirements, as specified in the PO.
