Description of the Inconel 601 Wire Mesh
Inconel 601 wire mesh exhibits resistance to high temperatures, carburisation, pitting, crevice corrosion, stress corrosion cracking and oxidation. It withstands a range of corrosive media, including organic compounds, inorganic compounds, acids and bases. Empirical tests confirm its mechanical strength at elevated temperatures and demonstrate creep resistance; empirical data support its durability over prolonged periods.
