Inconel Threaded Rods – Types & Configurations

Critical Applications of Inconel Threaded Rods

International Standards & Global Designations – Inconel Threaded Rods

RAYCHIN LIMITED manufactures Inconel threaded rods from material conforming to the most widely used national and international specifications. All material is traceable to the mill.

Chemical Composition (Weight %) – Inconel Alloys for Threaded Rods

Our Inconel threaded rods are produced from melts conforming to the following limits per ASTM/ASME/AMS.

Inconel 600 (UNS N06600 / 2.4816)

Inconel 625 (UNS N06625 / 2.4856)

Inconel 718 (UNS N07718 / 2.4668)

Metallurgical note: High nickel content (≥50%) provides exceptional resistance to chloride stress corrosion cracking. Chromium (14–23%) ensures oxidation resistance up to 1150°C. Molybdenum (in 625) and Nb+Ti (in 718/X-750) contribute to solid‑solution strengthening and precipitation hardening. Inconel 718's precipitation-hardened condition provides yield strengths exceeding 1035 MPa (150 ksi), ideal for high-stress threaded rod applications. Inconel 625 is solid-solution strengthened and requires no heat treatment for high strength.

Complete Mechanical & Physical Properties – Inconel Threaded Rods (MPa / ksi)

Inconel threaded rods are supplied in solution annealed (600, 625, 601) or age‑hardened (718, X‑750) condition per specification. Data represent typical values based on ASTM, AMS, and industry standards. ksi values (kilopound per square inch) are provided alongside MPa.

High‑Temperature Performance of Inconel Threaded Rods

Inconel superalloys retain significant strength at elevated temperatures, making Inconel threaded rods ideal for furnace hangers, gas turbine supports, and exhaust system tie-rods. Data below demonstrate the superiority of Inconel 718, 625, and 601 for high‑T applications.

Elevated Temperature Strength – Comparison by Grade

At 650°C, Inconel 718 retains about 80% of its room‑temperature tensile strength, outperforming many other alloys. Inconel 625 and 601 provide outstanding resistance to oxidation and carburization at even higher temperatures, making them excellent choices for high‑temperature threaded rods.

High‑Temperature Limits & Oxidation Resistance

Exceptional Corrosion Resistance of Inconel Threaded Rods

The high nickel and chromium content imparts resistance to a wide range of corrosive media: chlorides, acids, and alkalis. Inconel 625 and Inconel 718 threaded rods are particularly resistant to pitting and crevice corrosion in seawater and sour environments.

• Chloride stress corrosion cracking (SCC): All Inconel grades exhibit high resistance due to Ni >40%; immune to chloride-ion SCC.
• Sulfuric & Hydrochloric acids: Inconel 625 shows exceptional performance in reducing acids (Mo addition).
• Sour service (H₂S): Inconel 625 & 718 qualified per NACE MR0175/ISO 15156 for oil & gas.
• Oxidation & carburization: Inconel 601 outperforms due to aluminum addition.
• Seawater: Inconel 625 resists pitting and crevice corrosion, used extensively in marine fasteners.
• High-purity water & alkalis: Inconel 600 offers excellent corrosion resistance in nuclear applications.
• Dry chlorine & hydrogen chloride: Inconel 600 resists attack up to 650°C, making it suitable for chlorination processes.

Manufacturing Standards – Inconel Threaded Rods

All Inconel threaded rods are manufactured and tested to meet:

We offer surface finishes: passivation (ASTM A967), silver plating (AMS 2410 for anti‑seize), PTFE coating, electropolish, and zinc‑nickel plating. Full traceability and destructive/non‑destructive testing available (UT, MPI, PMI).
