Alloy 600 · UNS N06600
An Inconel 600 clad plate is carbon-steel plate bonded to a corrosion-resistant alloy layer, made from Inconel 600 to ASTM B168. Clad plate puts a thin alloy layer where the fluid is, on a cheaper carbon-steel base that carries the pressure — often far cheaper than solid alloy for thick vessels.

Inconel 600 Clad Plate: Why 600 for clad plates
Clad plate puts a thin alloy layer where the fluid is, on a cheaper carbon-steel base that carries the pressure — often far cheaper than solid alloy for thick vessels. 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 plate goes into vessels and tube sheets in aggressive media. Inconel 600 is picked for high-temperature oxidation, caustic and nuclear service. |
|---|---|
| Typical service | Furnaces & heat treating — Muffles, retorts and radiant tubes. |
| Matching filler | ERNiCr-3 (AWS A5.14) |

Inconel 600 Clad Plate — questions buyers ask
When is clad plate cheaper than solid alloy?
Usually when the total thickness is well above the corrosion allowance — the thicker the vessel, the bigger the saving.
Which standard covers Inconel 600 clad plates?
The material is ASTM B168; dimensions follow ASTM A264 / A265 · ASME SA-264 / SA-265. Always state both on your purchase order, with the edition if your project specifies one.
What decides the price of a Inconel 600 clad plate?
The alloy price, the size and dimensions, 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.
