P/M N690 (chemically, UNS N06690) is produced by the state-of-the-art Crucible P/M process: inert gas atomization, coupled with consolidation by hot isostatic pressing and/or extrusion. The advanced Crucible powder consolidation operation guarantees a fully dense, fine grained product. Crucible custom crafted parts can be machined in less time and with less tool wear than those produced from conventional 690 material. P/M N690 gives engineers and designers great flexibility in design. It is available in standard mill forms and as billet, bar and tubing, near net shapes and clad components and hollows. The use of near net shapes can decrease the amount of material used and reduces the costs of fabricating a finished part. Advantages: - Excellent corrosion resistance
- High strength
- Weldability
- Machinability
- Chemical homogeneity
- Near net shape
- Thermal stability
