Tough Alloys

Overview

MONEL K500 is a age-hardenable Nickel-Copper alloy which combines the corrosion resistance of Alloy 400 with high strength corrosion fatigue and erosion resistance.

MONEL K500 is a nickel-copper alloy, precipitation hardenable through additions of aluminum and titanium. MONEL K500 retains the excellent corrosion resistant characteristics of 400 and has enhanced strength and hardness after precipitation hardening when compared with 400. Alloy K500 has approximately three (3) times the yield strength and double the tensile strength when compared with 400. MONEL K500 can be further strengthened by cold working before the precipitation hardening.

 

Characteristics

• Excellent mechanical properties from sub-zero temperatures up to about 480C.
• Corrosion resistance in an extensive range of marine and chemical environments. From pure water to non-oxidising mineral acids, salts and alkalis.
  
  

Applications

• Propeller and pump shafts.
• Pumps and valves used in the manufacture of perchlorethylene, chlorinated plastics.

Typical application for MONEL K500 which takes advantage of high strength and corrosion resistance are pump shafts, impellers, propeller shafts, valve components for ships and offshore drilling towers, bolting, oil well drill collars and instrumentation components for oil and gas production. It is particularly well suited for centrifugal pumps in the marine industry because of its high strength and low corrosion rates in high-velocity seawater.

MONEL K500 is non-magnetic. MONEL K500 should be annealed when welded and the weldment then stress relieved before aging.

High Performance Alloys, Inc. stocks Alloy K500 in a range of sizes including 3/8"-2-1/2" diameter cold drawn, annealed and aged, and 2-3/4"-10" diameter hot finished and aged. Material can be supplied in random lengths, cut to order or machined to your specifications. Machining includes drilling, turning, tapping, threading, CNC shapes, flanges and more.

The Monel 400 material is a copper-nickel alloy that comes with some excellent mechanical properties. The Monel 400 Plate has high ductility, and they are quite durable too. The Monel 400 Plate is also known for its good resistance to corrosion in different corrosive media, and they have good pitting corrosion resistance. Whether the Alloy 400 Plate is hot rolled or cold rolled, the mechanical characteristics might vary slightly. Also, these plates are available in a wide range of dimensions.

Clients can get the Monel 400 Sheet with the length and breadth ranging anywhere between 200mm to 600mm and 1000mm to 2000mm, respectively. Their thickness can also vary between 0.3mm to 20mm. We are a renowned Monel 400 Plate supplier who supplies these plates made of hard material with the hardness score of NACE MR 175. These plates and sheets can come in different finishes like the hot and cold-rolled ones. The Monel Alloy 400 Plate material also easily supports various operations, including cutting, grinding, forming, and polishing.

The unique chemical composition and mechanical properties help the Nickel Alloy 400 Sheet to have high-temperature applications. It is because the ASTM B127 UNS N04400 material has a high melting point of 1350 degrees C. The ASME SB 127 UNS N04400 plates, sheets, tubes, etc., also comes with a high yield strength and tensile strength.

Clients can tell us about their requirements, and we will customize the UNS N04400 Coil exclusively for them. We manufacture the Alloy 400 Shim Sheet in all international standards and with dimensional accuracy. Our Din 2.4360 Strip, which is a narrow form of plate, is primarily used inlining operations. They also assist in filling gaps between the larger plate structure. The Monel Alloy 400 Foil we produce goes through several quality checks and third-party inspections in government-approved labs before they are delivered to our esteemed clients.
