Values follow ASTM B637 / B670 for UNS N07718. Always check against the edition named on your purchase order.

How to Verify Inconel 718 Coil with PMI
Positive material identification with a handheld XRF gun confirms the alloy on the piece itself, in seconds, before it is cut or welded. Inconel 718 is most often mixed up with Inconel 625 — the table shows which elements tell them apart.
Handheld XRF does not measure carbon or nitrogen; those come from the mill certificate or optical emission (OES) testing. We PMI-test nickel alloys as standard and any grade on request.
| Element | Inconel 718 | Inconel 625 |
|---|---|---|
| Nickel | 50.0 – 55.0 | 58.0 min |
| Chromium | 17.0 – 21.0 | 20.0 – 23.0 |
| Molybdenum | 2.80 – 3.30 | 8.0 – 10.0 |
| Titanium | 0.65 – 1.15 | 0.40 max |
| Niobium | 4.75 – 5.50 | 3.15 – 4.15 |
| Iron | Balance | 5.0 max |
| Manganese | residual | 0.50 max |
Inconel 718 Coil Applications
Inconel 718 is specified when the cheaper grade will not survive the service but a higher alloy would be more than the job needs. These are the jobs our buyers use it for.
Inconel 718 Coil vs 625, 600 and 825
| Grade | Coil standard | PREN (approx.) | Pick it when |
|---|---|---|---|
| Inconel 600 | ASTM B168 | — | High-temperature oxidation, caustic and nuclear service |
| Inconel 718 | ASTM B670 · AMS 5596 | — | Very high strength at temperatures up to about 650 °C |
| Inconel 825 | ASTM B424 | ≈ 31 | Sulphuric and phosphoric acid service, chloride stress-corrosion cracking and sour gas |
| Inconel 625 | ASTM B443 | ≈ 51 | Seawater, high strength and high temperature in one alloy |
PREN = Cr + 3.3 Mo + 16 N, from mid-range chemistry. A screening guide, not a substitute for corrosion data on your medium.
Inconel 718 Corrosion Resistance — Element by Element
Each alloying addition has a job. Knowing which one protects against your medium is the quickest way to judge whether 718 fits.
Niobium forms the gamma-double-prime phase that doubles strength after ageing.
Keeps very high strength and creep resistance up to about 650 °C.
Ages slowly, so it can be welded without cracking during post-weld heat treatment.
718 is chosen for strength; for corrosion alone, 625 or 825 are usually better value.
How your 718 coil order runs
- 01Enquiry review — we confirm size, standard edition and documents against your MR or drawing.
- 02Heat selection & PMI — the mill certificate is checked and material is PMI-tested before processing.
- 03Processing — cutting, machining or bevelling to your specification, with heat numbers marked.
- 04Inspection — your third-party inspector witnesses, or we share photos and test reports.
- 05Packing & dispatch — seaworthy packing from Nhava Sheva (JNPT), Mumbai, FOB or CIF, documents sent before the vessel sails.
Welding & Fabricating Inconel 718 Coil
Inconel 718 welds by all common arc processes. A few points our buyers ask about:
| Matching filler | ERNiFeCr-2 (AWS A5.14) |
|---|---|
| Over-alloyed filler | Post-weld solution treatment and ageing restore strength |
| Preheat | Not required; keep interpass temperature low |
| Cutting | Thermal or abrasive cutting; grind off heat-tinted edges before welding |
Follow your approved WPS; this is general guidance. See also 718 fittings and 718 flanges for the matching pipe-system parts.

Inconel 718 coil — questions buyers ask
Is Inconel 718 the same as Alloy 718?
Yes. Alloy 718, UNS N07718, W.Nr 2.4668 all refer to the same material, and coil is ordered to ASTM B670 whichever name is on the enquiry.
Can Inconel 718 coil be slit to width?
Yes. Coils can be slit to narrow widths for stamping, tube making and spring work; state width tolerance and coil weight on the enquiry.
Inconel 718 or Inconel 825 — which should I choose?
Inconel 718 is chosen for very high strength at temperatures up to about 650 °C. Inconel 825 is the step up when you need more pitting resistance or strength. See the comparison table on this page, or ask us with your process conditions.
