601 alloy is a nickel-chromium-iron alloy that has excellent oxidation resistance at high temperatures. It also possesses high-temperature strength and corrosion resistance, which makes it suitable for applications where heat and corrosion resistance are the primary considerations.
These materials are not a single material but the name for a family of corrosion resistant steels. Like many scientific breakthroughs, the origins of stainless steel lies in a lucky accident. From the smallest part of the zipper to the largest building skyscraper.
Metal fabrication is widely used across various industrial sectors such as mining, construction, manufacturing, shipbuilding, automotive, aerospace, and energy.
