Inconel Strips

Inconel Strips are metal strips manufactured from Inconel alloys, which are a group of nickel chromium based superalloy that possesses excellent strength, corrosion resistance and elevated temperature characteristics. The Inconel alloys are developed to offer excellent structural stability and corrosion resistance in the severest conditions. These properties make Inconel Strips suitable for various applications in Industries such as aerospace, power generation, chemical processing and marine Industries where high temperature and high stress is required. 

Advantages of  Inconel Strips

These flexible  Inconel Strips offer numerous benefits for industrial applications.

• High-Temperature Resistance: Inconel Strips do not deform or shrink when exposed to temperatures up to 1,000°C (1,832°F) and above. This makes them useful for their applications in high temperature applications for instance in gas turbines, heat exchangers and furnace parts.
• Excellent Oxidation and Corrosion Resistance: Inconel alloys are well known for their high resistance to bowel white oxidation and corrosion.
• Superior Mechanical Strength: Tensile and yield strength of the Inconel Strips are very high, which enables them to hold high mechanical loads without being distorted or breaking. 
• Creep Resistance: Inconel alloys have a low rate of creep deformation hence making Inconel Strips suitable for parts that require working under high temperatures and mechanical stress for a long time.
• Fatigue Resistance: These strips have good fatigue characteristics to enable them endure thermal cycling and mechanical loading without cracking.
• Dimensional Stability: The Inconel Strips do not deform or expand due to high temperatures, and that is why they are used where accuracy and standardization are key factors.
• Weldability and Fabrication: Inconel Strips are easy to weld and fabricate and thus can be shaped and sized to fit specific applications. 

Inconel Strips offers several advantages that make it suitable for industrial and commercial applications.

Common Applications of  Inconel Strips

Due to their excellent features, the  Inconel Strips are preferred for various industrial applications.

• Aerospace Industry: Inconel strips are widely used in aerospace applications where high performance products like turbine blades, exhaust systems and other structural supports in jet and aircraft engines are manufactured due to high-temperature strength characteristics.
• Power Generation: These strips have applications in power plants including gas turbines, steam turbines and nuclear reactors where conditions are high temperature and high stress, and they offer the necessary life and reliability.
• Chemical Processing: Inconel Strips are used in chemical processing industries where parts like heat exchangers, reactors, or pipes are used in corrosive chemical and high temperature conditions.
• Marine Industry: Inconel Strips are applied in various marine equipment such as heat exchangers, exhaust systems, and underwater equipment in which high temperature and corrosive sea water are expected.
• Oil and Gas Industry: The oil and gas industry applies Inconel Strips for its parts in locations where high temperature and pressure are involved or where corrosion and mechanical stress are a potential factor.
• Automotive Industry: Inconel Strips are widely used in automotive industries and especially for high performance automobile parts such as turbochargers, exhaust systems, and components of the engine, where they are subjected to high temperatures and mechanical stresses and are expected not to fail.

Inconel Strips are applied across various industries due to their valuable features, which make them versatile.
