Rickard Specialty Metals is a seasoned Inconel 625 supplier with 30 years of experience. We provide a wide selection of forgings, bars (flat and round), rings, and other product forms.

Inco 625 (UNS N06625) is a nickel-based superalloy that exhibits excellent oxidation and corrosion resistance. It also possesses high strength and fatigue properties in a wide range of temperatures, and can be easily welded and brazed. It is widely used for chemical, nuclear, and marine applications. Aerospace uses include airframe and jet engine components as well as space shuttle main engine parts. Other potential applications include heat exchanger and pressure vessel components for chemical processing.

With a high level of chromium and molybdenum, Inconel 625 exhibits excellent corrosion-fatigue strength. Additionally, IN 625 has moderately high tensile strength, creep resistance, and excellent resistance to chloride-ion stress corrosion cracking.

Inconel 625 Forgings:

Our forgings inventory include Inconel 625 round bar, flat bar and rectangular bar, as well as forged rings, rolled rings, and discs.

We recommend forging with a maximum starting temperature of 2,150F and a minimum finishing temperature of 1,850F. Forging at temperatures below 1850F may cause hammer splits in the material. The alloy should be reduced in such a manner as to prevent formation of a duplex grain structure. Final maximum reductions of 15 to 20 percent are recommended for open die forging.
