Inconel 718 instrumentation tubes are specialized tubing products made from a high-strength, corrosion-resistant nickel-chromium alloy known as Inconel 718. This alloy is precipitation-hardenable, meaning it can be heat-treated to achieve high mechanical strength and hardness while maintaining excellent resistance to extreme environments. These properties make Inconel 718 ideal for use in demanding instrumentation systems where high pressure, high temperature, and corrosive conditions are present.
The key performance characteristics of Inconel 718 include exceptional tensile and yield strength, creep resistance, and fatigue durability, even at elevated temperatures up to 700°C (1300°F). Unlike standard stainless steel or lower-grade nickel alloys, Inconel 718 resists common forms of corrosion such as pitting, stress corrosion cracking, and oxidation, especially in environments involving seawater, sour gas, or aggressive chemicals.
In critical instrumentation applications—such as chemical injection lines, hydraulic control systems, aerospace fuel lines, or nuclear power monitoring circuits—Inconel 718 tubing ensures consistent and reliable performance over long service periods. Its clean internal surface finish supports precise fluid and gas transmission, while its robust material composition reduces maintenance needs and system downtime in critical processes.
These tubes are available in a range of sizes, typically with outer diameters from 6 mm to 25 mm (1/4" to 1") and wall thicknesses customized to meet pressure requirements. They are manufactured to stringent standards such as ASTM B444, AMS 5589, or ASTM B705, and can be supplied in annealed or age-hardened conditions depending on the application's strength and formability needs.
