Inconel 690 Coil Supplier, Stockist and Exporter
Table of Contents
Aurico Alloys LLP supplies inconel 690 coil (N06690, Werkstoff 2.4642) from ready stock in Mumbai, to customers across India and in more than 40 export markets.
Coil is the most economical way to buy sheet-gauge material when parts are blanked, roll-formed or slit to strip, because it removes the cut-length premium and keeps the surface consistent along the whole run.
Inconel 690 carries nearly twice the chromium of alloy 600, which is why it replaced it for nuclear steam-generator tubing.

Identifiers and physical constants for Inconel 690. A dash means no such designation is published for this grade.
Chemical Composition
Nickel 58% minimum with an unusually high 27-31% chromium and 7-11% iron. The chromium level is what drives its resistance to oxidising acids and high-temperature corrosion.
| Element | Min (%) | Max (%) |
|---|---|---|
| Nickel (Ni) | 58.0 | — |
| Chromium (Cr) | 27.0 | 31.0 |
| Iron (Fe) | 7.0 | 11.0 |
| Carbon (C) | — | 0.05 |
| Silicon (Si) | — | 0.50 |

Mechanical and Physical Properties
Annealed tensile strength around 590-760 MPa. Very high resistance to stress-corrosion cracking in pure and caustic water, plus excellent nitric and mixed-acid resistance.
Industry Applications
Why this grade
Inconel 690 is the high-chromium modification of 600, at 27-31% chromium against 600's 14-17%, with nickel down to around 58%. It was developed specifically to resist the stress-corrosion cracking that affected 600 in nuclear steam generators, and is generally regarded as immune to it. That chromium also gives it strong resistance in highly oxidising environments.
| Industry | Typical use |
|---|---|
| Nuclear | Steam-generator tubing, reactor internals and reprocessing equipment. |
| Chemical processing | Nitric and mixed-acid service, and nitric-hydrofluoric pickling. |
| Glass manufacturing | Forehearths, stirrers and glass-contact hardware. |
| Power generation | Coal gasification and high-sulphur combustion equipment. |
| Waste treatment | Incineration hardware exposed to oxidising ash. |
Testing and Certification
Every consignment ships with an EN 10204 3.1 mill test certificate stating heat number, chemical analysis and mechanical properties. Depending on the specification we can add positive material identification, ultrasonic and dye-penetrant testing, intergranular corrosion testing to ASTM G28 or A262, and third-party inspection release from Lloyd's Register, Bureau Veritas, SGS or TUV.
Aurico Alloys LLP operates an ISO 9001:2015 quality management system, and can certify material to NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 for sour service where the grade permits.
