K500 Nickel Bar, Wire, Rod
Exceptional corrosion resistance to a wide variety of chemical processing environments including strong reducing environments, chloride-contaminated media, chlorine, and sea water. Excellent resistance to pitting and stress-corrosion cracking.
Chemistry:
Nickel 63.0 Sulfur 0.01 max
Copper 27.0-33.0 Silicon 0.5 max
Carbon 0.25 max Aluminum 2.30-3.15
Manganese 1.5 max Titanium 0.35-0.85
Iron 2.0 max
By adding Aluminum and Titanium to this nickel/copper alloy, followed by an age hardening process, this enhances the physical properties, giving the material greater strength and hardness.
