Inconel Mesh

Inconel mesh is made of premium nickel-chromium-based superalloys. It is designed for extreme heat, corrosion resistance, and mechanical strength in the most demanding industrial environments. Known for its oxidation resistance and ability to maintain structural integrity under stress, Inconel mesh is widely used in aerospace, chemical processing, and power generation. 

Inconel Mesh is available in many forms, such as rolls, sheets, custom-cut panels, perforated sheets, expanded metal, laser shaped mesh pieces and heat treating baskets or trays

 Key Features of Inconel Mesh: 

✔ Exceptional high-temperature resistance (up to 2200°F / 1200°C for some grades). 

✔ Outstanding oxidation & corrosion resistance (resists acids, chlorides, and seawater). 

✔ High strength & creep resistance under thermal cycling and mechanical stress. 

✔ Excellent fatigue resistance for long-term durability. 

✔ Weldable and fabricable into custom mesh configurations. 

 Common Inconel Alloys Used for Mesh:

Alloy Key Properties Best For
Inconel 600 Resists oxidation & chlorides Furnace components, chemical processing
Inconel 601 Superior oxidation resistance Heat treatment fixtures, radiant tubes
Inconel 625 High strength, corrosion & fatigue resistance Aerospace, marine, nuclear
Inconel 690 superior oxidation & corrosion resistance corrosive, oxidizing, or nuclear environments
Inconel 718 Age-hardenable, extreme strength Jet engines, gas turbines

 Applications of Inconel Mesh: 

– Aerospace & Defense 

  – Turbine blade screens, exhaust systems, heat shields. 

– Chemical & Petrochemical 

  – Acid filtration, reactor screens, catalyst support. 

– Power Generation 

  – Gas turbine components, nuclear reactor internals. 

– Marine & Offshore 

  – Seawater filtration, submarine components. 

– Automotive (High-Performance) 

  – Turbocharger meshes, exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) systems.

 Comparison: Inconel vs. Stainless Steel vs. Hastelloy: 

Property Inconel 316 Stainless Steel Hastelloy C276
Max Temperature Up to 2200°F (1200°C) 1600°F (870°C) 1900°F (1040°C)
Corrosion Resistance Excellent (oxidation) Good (general use) Best (harsh acids)
Strength at High Temp Superior Moderate High
Cost High Low Very High

Why Choose Inconel Mesh? 

– Best for extreme heat + corrosion combo (e.g., jet engines, exhaust systems). 

– Longer lifespan than stainless steel in aggressive environments. 

– Maintains strength under thermal cycling (unlike many alloys). 

Customization Options: 

– Ultra-fine filtration (sub-micron) or heavy-duty structural mesh. 

– Heat-treated (aged) for maximum strength (e.g., Inconel 718). 

– Welded vs. woven construction (for rigidity or flexibility).
