💡 Key Takeaways on Stamping Inconel
  • Inconel’s durability – Inconel’s composition helps it stand apart from standard metals that often can’t withstand harsh environments. The metal’s composition, and its specialized grades, let it resist extreme heat, high pressures, and corrosive chemicals while maintaining structural integrity.
  • Mass production and versatility – Precision metal stamping of Inconel can mass produce parts that both adhere to rigorous quality standards like ISO 9001 and AS9100 and meet the needs of a variety of industries.
  • Valco is your one-stop shop – The team at Valco provides a highly collaborative, domestic manufacturing pipeline that handles everything from initial planning to full global distribution. Our USA-based facility supports reshoring while supplying a host of premium value-added services for metal stamping.

At Valco, our team specializes in metal stamping diverse materials, ranging from aluminum to copper to steel and beyond. One of our capabilities is in Inconel stamping, and we provide customized and innovative solutions that can meet nearly any project need.

What Is Inconel?

Inconel is a trademarked, specialized superalloy that is composed of mostly nickel and chromium, while featuring smaller amounts of iron, cobalt, titanium, molybdenum, and aluminum depending on the specifics of a certain grade. Its composition makes it ideal for enduring extreme temperatures, caustic chemicals, and high pressures, so many industries opt for Inconel when more standard metals would not be up to certain tasks.

The bottom line: Inconel is the material of choice where standard metals soften and deform.

Types of Inconel Alloys

Valco is adept at stamping Inconel of diverse forms, with some of the grades including:

  • Inconel 600 – This type is prized for its corrosion and oxidation resistance at temperatures up to 1,900 °F, and so often used in furnace and chemical processing components

  • Inconel 625 – This very formable option can hold up to seawater, acids, alkalis, and temperatures up to 2,000 °F, making it a common choice for marine and aerospace applications

  • Inconel 690 – Often used in nuclear reactors and steam generators, this form of Inconel provides resistance to oxidation, carburization, and stress-corrosion cracking at temperatures exceeding 2,000 °F

  • Inconel 718 – A standard choice of aerospace and turbine industries, this form of Inconel features a melting point of 2,300–2,400 °F and is known for its premium weldability

  • Inconel 751 – This variant of Inconel provides greater strength and improved fatigue resistance even at higher temperatures, leading to its use in gas turbine engines and exhaust systems
⚠️ Grade selection matters. Each grade is tuned to a different combination of temperature, chemistry, and pressure – the right choice depends on the specifics of your application.

Benefits of Inconel Stamping

Using Inconel in your applications comes with an array of advantages, which are further enhanced by our efficient and proven stamping services.

  • High-temperature strength – Inconel is known to maintain its structural strength even at high temperatures, putting it a class above metals that soften and deform

  • Corrosion and oxidation resistance – Whether your application needs to endure rust, scaling, chemicals, saltwater, high temperatures, or acids, Inconel is an excellent choice
  • Precision and tight tolerances – While the metal is incredibly tough, Inconel stamping services are able to form it into the dimensions required to meet rigorous quality standards, like those of ISO 9001 and AS9100
  • Mass production – Inconel can be fed through production stations at high speeds, allowing operators to produce high volumes quickly and reduce costs
  • Versatility – Inconel stamping supports both small, intricate parts and deep, larger parts, making it ideal for diverse industries
