Inconel 625 (Alloy 625, UNS N06625, W. Nr. 2.4856) is a nickel‑chromium‑molybdenum alloy strengthened by solid‑solution additions of niobium and molybdenum. Unlike precipitation‑hardening superalloys, Inconel 625 achieves high strength in the annealed or solution‑annealed condition, with excellent corrosion resistance in chloride‑bearing and reducing media. It also provides good oxidation resistance at elevated temperatures.

Corrosion and high‑temperature behavior

  • Outstanding resistance to pitting and crevice attack in chloride media and seawater.
  • Very good stress‑corrosion‑cracking resistance in chloride environments.
  • Strong resistance to many mineral acids and sour service media when appropriately processed.
  • Oxidation resistance typically up to about 980 °C with stable mechanical response at elevated temperatures.

Typical end uses Seawater and desalination equipment, offshore risers and downhole components, chemical process piping, heat‑exchanger and condenser tubing, furnace tubes, aircraft ducting and bellows, and high‑temperature instrumentation.

ASME SB444 Alloy 625 Hexagonal Pipe Characteristics

Stellar Alloys supplies ASME SB444 Alloy 625 hexagonal pipe/hex nipples engineered for compact, wrench-friendly connections in demanding services. Typically machined from SB444 (seamless) or SB705 (welded) mother pipe—or from Alloy 625 hex bar—these parts retain the corrosion and high-temperature strength of UNS N06625. We support NPT/BSPT threads, pressure classes (3K/6K/9K), and finishing options for clean, leak-tight make-up. Use the table below to finalize AF size, thread form, and test documentation.

Parameter Details
Product form Hexagonal pipe/hex nipple, typically machined from ASME SB444 (seamless) or ASME SB705 (welded) mother pipe/tube; hex may also be made from Alloy 625 hex bar then threaded per order.
Grade & IDs Inconel® 625 / Alloy 625 — UNS N06625, W.Nr. 2.4856 (Ni-Cr-Mo-Nb solid-solution alloy).
Typical size range 1/8″ NB to 4″ NB for hex nipples/hex pipe pieces; larger AF sizes on request (machined from bar or pipe). Pressure classes commonly 3000, 6000, 9000 for threaded pieces.
Threads / ends NPT (ASME B1.20.1), BSP/BSPT (ISO 7/1) male/female; also PE/BE blanks for site machining. BSP×NPT adaptors are common in 625.
Finishes Bright-annealed, pickled, polished (180–600 grit); electropolish available from some fittings vendors.
Inspection & testing PMI at dispatch, thread-gauge checks, hydro/pneumatic as ordered; documentation to EN 10204 3.1 when supplied as piping components. (Practices align with leading fittings suppliers.)
Mechanical/temperature notes 625 offers high tensile, creep and fatigue strength, excellent oxidation & chloride SCC resistance; suitable from cryogenic to ~980 °C (1800 °F) in oxidizing service (design per code).
Typical uses Instrumentation tie-ins, chemical dosing lines, high-temperature headers and OEM skids where a compact hex profile eases wrenching and leak-tight threaded make-up. BSP×NPT transitions are common in global projects.

Notes: “Hexagonal pipe” is generally produced as short hex sections or hex nipples—either turned from SB444/SB705 round tube/pipe or from 625 hex bar—rather than as mill-made continuous hex-section pipe. Confirm AF, thread class, and pressure class on the approved drawing before manufacture.

Frequently Asked Questions About Inconel 625 Pipe

No. Inconel 625 is a nickel‑chromium‑molybdenum superalloy with niobium additions. It is not stainless steel. It offers higher resistance to pitting, crevice attack and chloride stress‑corrosion cracking compared with common austenitic stainless steels.

Alloy 600 is a Ni‑Cr‑Fe solid‑solution alloy with good high‑temperature oxidation resistance. Alloy 625 adds molybdenum and niobium for much higher strength and superior pitting and crevice corrosion resistance, especially in seawater and many acids. 625 is often selected for offshore and sour‑service duties.

In the annealed condition, Inconel 625 is generally non‑magnetic or only slightly responsive. Cold work can increase magnetic response. For low‑magnetic applications, specify annealed tubing and request permeability checks on the MTC.

Typical uses include seawater systems, desalination, offshore risers, chemical process piping, furnace tubes, aerospace ducting and bellows, and heat‑exchanger tubing where corrosion resistance and elevated‑temperature strength are required.

Use matching chemistry consumables such as ENiCrMo‑3 for SMAW and ERNiCrMo‑3 for GTAW/GMAW. Maintain interpass temperature control and post‑weld cleaning to preserve corrosion performance.
