Inconel 600 or 601 Bolts For High Temperatures?

Q: For a high temperature oxidation-rich environment which would be better Inconel 600 or 601 bolts?
A: For this situation it really depends on the temperature range you are dealing with because both an Inconel 600 bolt and an Inconel 601 bolt offer good oxidation resistance. Inconel 600 can service up to 2000F where Inconel 601 can handle up to 2200F. If you temperatures aren’t that severe, I’d suggest A286 bolts for excellent oxidation resistance. An A286 bolt is known for its high strength, creep resistance and oxidation resistance up to 1300F.
