Inconel 690 Sheets, Plates, Bars & Tubes – UNS N06690

Inconel 690 (UNS N06690) – Stockist, Supplier and Processor in Mumbai Since 1992

Inconel 690 (UNS N06690, W.Nr 2.4642) is a high-chromium nickel alloy with about 29% chromium, giving excellent resistance to oxidising acids, oxidising salts and hot sulphur-bearing gases, and very good resistance to stress-corrosion cracking in high-temperature water. Ganesh Metals, a stockist, supplier and processor in Mumbai since 1992, supplies Inconel 690 as sheet, plate and strip to ASTM B168 / ASME SB168, round bar to ASTM B166, seamless pipe and tube to ASTM B167, and seamless condenser and heat-exchanger tube to ASTM B163. Material can be cut to size or supplied as circles, and every order is documented with a mill test certificate to EN 10204 3.1 and heat-number traceability.

Inconel 690 is the step up from Inconel 600 when the environment is more oxidising. Its higher chromium content resists nitric acid, nitric-hydrofluoric pickling mixtures and hot oxidising gases far better than 600. For reducing or chloride-bearing wet media, Inconel 625 or a Hastelloy grade is usually the better fit. Share your process conditions and we will help you compare grades before you order.

Why Choose Inconel 690?

Inconel 690 combines high nickel, which resists chloride stress-corrosion cracking, with about 29% chromium for outstanding resistance to oxidising media and high-temperature oxidation. It is a solid-solution alloy with good strength, metallurgical stability and good fabrication and welding characteristics.

Applications:

Inconel 690 is specified where strongly oxidising acids, hot gases or high-purity water attack lower-chromium alloys.

  • Nuclear Power: Steam generator tubing, tube sheets and baffles exposed to high-temperature pressurised water.

  • Chemical Processing: Equipment handling nitric acid and nitric-hydrofluoric acid mixtures.

  • Heat Treatment & Furnaces: Muffles, retorts and fixtures exposed to hot oxidising and sulphur-bearing gases.

  • Pickling & Metal Finishing: Tanks, coils and hardware for oxidising pickling and treatment baths.

  • Energy & Gasification: Components for coal gasification and sulphur-bearing high-temperature atmospheres.

Inconel 690 is supplied as sheets, plates, coils and strip, discs and circles, round bars, seamless pipes and tubes, flanges and fittings. Sizes on request – share your drawing or dimensions and we confirm availability.
