Inconel 690 Tube & Pipe is a high-chromium nickel alloy product known for its exceptional resistance to corrosion and high-temperature oxidation. It is engineered to withstand aggressive environments, especially those involving acidic and oxidizing media. With outstanding metallurgical stability, Inconel 690 Tube & Pipe is used extensively in nuclear steam generators, chemical processing plants, and heat exchanger systems. Labdhi Metals, a trusted manufacturer, stockist, and exporter, provides these tubes and pipes in a wide range of dimensions, forms, and custom specifications.
Thanks to its high chromium content (27–31%), Inconel 690 Tube & Pipe exhibits excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking, intergranular corrosion, and crevice corrosion, particularly in chloride-containing environments. This makes it a preferred material in power generation and desalination industries. Labdhi Metals offers both seamless and welded tubing and piping solutions that comply with stringent international codes and standards, such as ASTM B163 and ASTM B167.
Each tube and pipe undergoes rigorous quality testing, including non-destructive testing (NDT), hydrostatic testing, dimensional verification, and chemical analysis. Labdhi Metals ensures high dimensional precision, superior surface finish, and excellent mechanical integrity. The company supplies Inconel 690 tubing in various forms such as straight lengths, U-tubes, and coiled forms based on application requirements. Pipes are offered in various schedules ranging from SCH 10 to SCH XXS.
The mechanical strength and corrosion resistance of Inconel 690 Tube & Pipe make it highly suitable for long-term service in harsh thermal environments. It retains strength and stability at temperatures up to 1000°C and maintains its integrity under severe mechanical stress and pressure fluctuations. This makes the alloy an ideal candidate for use in steam generator tubing in the nuclear industry, furnace components, and chemical reactors.
