The Inconel 600 wire refers to an ASTM B166 UNS N06600 cold-worked wire which has uniform round cross section along its whole length, supplied in coil form. They can be further woven into wire mesh or wire cloth which are widely used for filter, conveyor belt, or heat-treatment furnace. Inconel 600 wires are usually wrapped on a spool in different lengths.

Manufacture Processes of Inconel 600 Wires

Generally, ASTM B166 UNS N06600 wires shall be fabricated by the following processes: Mid-frequency Vacuum Induction Furnace (or Electric Arc Furnace) → Electroslag Remelting → Forging → Rolling → Cold Drawing → Heat Treatment → Cleaning → Packaging & Storage.
