What is the recommended welding rod to be used for Inconel 600?

Using GTAW, you use ERNiCr-3 to weld.

Suggested filler is ERNiCr-3:
ASME Sec. II C says as follows:
A7.4.1 ERNiCr-3. The nominal composition (wt %) of filler metal of this classification is 72 Ni, 20 Cr, 3 Mn, and 2.5
Nb plus Ta. Filler metal of this classification is used for welding nickel-chromium-iron alloy (ASTM B163, B166, B167,
and B168 having UNS number N06600) to itself, for the clad side of joints in steel clad with nickel-chromium-iron alloy,
for surfacing steel with nickel-chromium-iron weld metal, for dissimilar welding of nickel-base alloys, and for joining
steel to stainless steel or nickel-base alloys using the GTAW, GMAW, SAW, and PAW processes.
mechcolor, 601 you thought?

Thanks ben and mechcolor's suggestion requires a review.
601 has got the compatible consumble, ERNICrFe-11.

Thanks Dlew & ben. I actually quoted for 601 inconel.
Corrected that, edited the post.
