Allegheny Ludlum's AL 601 alloy is an austenitic nickel-chromium-iron alloy designed for both heat and corrosion resistance. As compared to AL 600 alloy, the AL 601 alloy has, in addition to increased chromium, an aluminum content which together provide outstanding resistance to oxidation. In addition, AL 601 alloy has good resistant to environments containing carbon and sulfur and this alloy resists aqueous corrosion. The AL 601 alloy is used in aerospace applications, for heat and chemical processing equipment, and in power generation, pollution control and heat treating applications. Forming, machining and welding properties are similar to those of stable austenitic stainless steels. Information provided by Allegheny Ludlum |
