Inconel 625 Stamping

Inconel 625 is a highly regarded alloy due to its high corrosion protection and temperature resistance. Its composition includes approximately 58% nickel, 20% to 30% chromium, 8% to 10% molybdenum, and 3.15% to 4.15% niobium, which provides excellent strength and toughness. It is superior to Inconel 600 in the following ways:

• Corrosion resistance: Especially resistant to pitting and crevice corrosion common in marine applications
• Strength and temperature resistance: Maintains strength without heat-treating, tolerates temperatures from cryogenic to about 1,800 °F
• Oxidation resistance: Stronger resistance to oxides in environments such as oil and gas rigs, marine, and spacecraft reentry
• Cost: More expensive due to the addition of molybdenum and niobium

Inconel 625 tends to present more difficulties during the stamping process. Ithardens more rapidly than Inconel 600, which requires careful planning to include intermediate annealing steps. However, the inherent strength and stability of alloy 625 can help make up the difference because it often requires less post-process heat treatment.

We constantly adapt and incorporate new, modern technologies to stay on the cutting edge of Inconel 625 stamping. Our plant features the following state-of-the-art equipment:

• Stamping presses from 50 to 150 tons
• Automated turret punch presses up to 36 by 48 inches
• Computerized press brakes
• CO2 laser cutters
• Fiber laser cutting system

We are capable of coil feeding for mass production and performing single-hit, compound, and complex progressive tooling. We can also expedite your parts by producing an initial stock order while we develop tooling for the main run.
