Description of Inconel 718 Wire Mesh
Inconel Mesh exhibits resistance to high temperatures, carburisation, pitting, crevice corrosion, stress corrosion cracking and oxidation. It resists many corrosive media, including organic compounds, inorganic compounds, acids and alkalis. It demonstrates high mechanical strength at elevated temperatures, creep resistance and an extended service life.
