Inconel flanges

What Are Inconel Flanges?

Inconel flanges are specialized piping components made from Inconel alloys, such as Inconel 600, 625, and 718. These alloys are known for their ability to maintain strength and resist degradation under extreme temperatures and corrosive conditions. Inconel flanges ensure leak-proof and robust connections in critical systems, making them a reliable choice for extreme environments.
