An alloy designed for outstanding corrosion resistance in a wide range of severe environments. The alloy is used in the most severe environments encountered in chemical processing, pollution control, pulp and paper production, and treatment of industrial and municipal wastes. Chemical processing uses include heat exchangers, reaction vessels, evaporators, and transfer piping. Air pollution control applications are stack liners, ducts, dampers, scrubbers, stack-gas re-heaters, fans, and housings.

INCONEL alloy 686 is stocked & distributed by Corrosion Materials and BIBUS Metals AG.
