Are Inconel600 and N06600 similar materials?
Thread Content
I have a gentle question: 1. Are Inconel600 and N06600 similar materials? 2. Since the manufacturing unit has already conducted a welding procedure qualification for Inconel 600, is it still necessary to carry out a welding procedure qualification for N06600? 3. According to the standards, when a company uses materials of a foreign grade for the first time, it is required to carry out a welding procedure qualification. In that case, if a welding procedure qualification has already been done for Inconel 600, does using N06600 count as using it for the first time (assuming these two grades of material are similar)?
They are two codes for the same material; for details, see GBT15007
How is this post the same as the problem I just encountered? Thank you to the original poster for the precise question and to the first responder for the professional answer!
Inconel600 is a trade name. . Logically, the material standard code N06600 should be specified in the process evaluation
