HAYNES 556 is an iron-base alloy containing substantial nickel, chromium and cobalt. It combines high-temperature strength with resistance to sulfidation, carburization and chlorine-bearing environments. The alloy also resists selected molten salts and molten zinc, supporting industrial thermal processing applications. Good fabrication and welding characteristics make it practical for furnace hardware, chemical process equipment and components exposed to mixed high-temperature corrosion mechanisms.
