JLC 600 is a nickel-chromium-iron alloy with superior resistance to nitriding and carburization. It has high scaling resistance up to 1000°C. It is usually selected for applications which require resistance to corrosion and heat such as industrial furnaces.
JLC 601 is a nickel-chromium-iron alloy with a substantial chromium content that provides resistance to many corrosive media and high temperature environments. Oxidation resistance is further enhanced by Aluminium content. This is a material for possessing a broad utility in such fields as thermal processing, chemical processing, pollution control, aerospace and power generation.

Recommended Service Temperatures:
Minimum: |
-200°C (-328°F) |
But below -120°C (-184°F) slight magnetism may occur. |
Maximum: |
340°C (644°F) |
For continuous operation. Can be taken up to 1000°C. |
Heat Treatment: For better mechanical handling, stress relieve at 450-480°C for 60 minutes is recommended.
