Alloy Description
JLC 600 is a nickel-chromium-iron alloy with superior resistance to nitriding and carburization. It has high scaling resistance up to 1000 °C.
It is usually selected for applications which require resistance to corrosion and heat such as industrial furnaces.
Condition of Supply
JLC 600 is supplied in the following conditions:
- Cold Drawn.
- Cold Drawn, Spring Temper.
