### **Product Datasheet: Alloy X / Inconel® HX Sheet (UNS N06002)** **Alloy X** (commercially known as **Inconel® HX** and standardized as **UNS N06002**) is a nickel-chromium-iron-molybdenum superalloy specifically engineered for extreme high-temperature service. This solid-solution strengthened alloy demonstrates exceptional resistance to oxidation, carburization, and other corrosive environments while maintaining high strength at temperatures up to 1200°C (2200°F). The **sheet** product form of Inconel HX is characterized by its excellent formability and weldability, making it ideal for fabricating complex components through cutting, bending, and welding processes. Available in various thicknesses, it serves as a versatile material for constructing high-temperature systems across multiple industries. --- ### **1.
