Inconel Heat Shields
Formed thermal shields, guards, retainers and covers for exhaust, furnace and high-temperature equipment.
Request nickel alloy fabrication services for build-to-print Inconel, Hastelloy and Monel brackets, heat shields, trays, ducts and welded assemblies. Send the exact alloy and material condition, released drawings, weld acceptance notes, inspection requirements, quantities and service constraints for an OEM feasibility review and quote. Prepare a nickel alloy fabrication RFQ · Compare custom titanium fabrication · Nickel alloy grades and material reference
This is the commercial ordering page for nickel alloy fabrication services, from drawing review through cutting, forming, specified welding, inspection and protected packout. The companion material guide explains alloy properties; an actual RFQ defines the approved grade, springback risks, heat-input controls, surface requirements and deliverables.
Formed thermal shields, guards, retainers and covers for exhaust, furnace and high-temperature equipment.
Hastelloy and nickel alloy trays, liners, ducts and covers for aggressive process environments.
Inconel brackets, clips and supports with controlled holes, edges, bend locations and lot identity.
Fixture-controlled TIG-welded boxes, transitions, plenums and equipment subassemblies built to drawing.
The OEM or design authority owns alloy selection, service validation and final equipment compliance. DRAmetal manufactures the released components to the agreed material, process, inspection and documentation scope.
Nickel and high-nickel alloy parts require material identity, contamination control, qualified forming or welding routes and inspection planned around the released drawing.
Thermal Formed Inconel 625 shields, guards and standoff panels for high-temperature zones where ordinary stainless loses margin.
Corrosion Formed and welded Hastelloy components for chemical-adjacent equipment, fluid containment and corrosive exhaust paths.
Welded GTAW assemblies manufactured with joint preparation, fixture, filler, purge and heat-input requirements defined by the released specification.
Supports Inconel 718 and drawing-defined nickel alloy brackets, clips, retainers and supports for thermal cycling and loaded equipment interfaces.
| Materials | Inconel 600, 625 and 718, Hastelloy C-276, Monel 400 and drawing-defined nickel alloys |
|---|---|
| Typical forms | Sheet, plate, strip, tube, formed details and customer-specified machined inserts |
| Fabrication | Laser or waterjet cutting as appropriate, deburring, press-brake forming, TIG welding, hardware and assembly |
| Forming controls | Alloy-specific bend radius, springback compensation, staged forming and tool condition review |
| Weld controls | Joint cleanliness, filler and purge requirements, fixture restraint, heat-input planning and inspection to drawing |
| Quality records | Material certificates, first article, dimensional reports and special-process records when defined by the RFQ |
Confirm alloy, product form, temperature or corrosion exposure, critical features and required records.
Review bend radius, springback, work hardening, tool access, weld sequence and inspection setup.
Select the cutting route and protect part identity while controlling burrs and heat-affected edges.
Use staged forming and repeat fixtures where geometry, springback or assembly fit requires them.
Control joint preparation and heat input, then inspect seams and drawing-defined dimensions.
Release parts with the agreed material, inspection and revision records plus protected packaging.
High-nickel alloys are selected because service conditions are demanding. A credible supplier must preserve alloy identity and plan forming and welding around the material rather than around standard steel settings.
Cutting and forming routes must avoid unnecessary rework because many nickel alloys harden rapidly.
High strength and elastic recovery require alloy-specific bend allowances and trial control.
Weld sequence, filler, purge and restraint affect distortion, seam condition and final fit.
625, 718, C-276 and Monel grades are not interchangeable, so lot identity must remain visible.

Springback, weld cracking and thermal distortion impaired the original shields and shortened fixture life.
Results apply to the project configuration described on the linked page.
Read the Customer Project →We align material grade, service notes, forming risks, weld requirements and inspection before route release.
Heat shields, trays, brackets and weldments can be supplied as individual parts or revision-controlled kits.
Inspection targets the datums, seams, holes, flange positions and surface conditions that drive assembly fit.
Material and process records are supplied to the level defined by the drawing, purchase order and RFQ.
Depending on the released drawing, the manufacturing scope can include exact-alloy review, sheet or plate cutting, edge preparation, forming, drawing-defined TIG welding, mechanical assembly, dimensional inspection and agreed material records. Alloy availability and each process are confirmed at RFQ review.
Common RFQs include Inconel 600, 625 and 718, Hastelloy C-276 and Monel 400. We confirm availability and route feasibility against the exact material specification.
Yes. We fabricate formed Inconel 625 heat shields, guards, covers, brackets and welded thermal assemblies to customer drawings.
Yes. Nickel alloy GTAW is reviewed for joint preparation, filler, purge, heat input, fixture restraint and drawing-defined inspection before release.
The route may use alloy-specific bend allowances, staged forming, controlled overbend, trial parts and inspection fixtures depending on thickness and geometry.
Send drawings, 3D files, exact alloy and specification, thickness, weld and finish notes, service-critical features, records and quantity.
Send your drawings, alloy specification, thickness, weld notes, service conditions and quantity. We will review forming, heat-input and inspection risks before quoting.
