Characteristics of Monel K500
  • Corrosion resistance in an extensive range of marine and chemical environments. From pure water to non-oxidizing mineral acids, salts and alkalis.
  • Excellent resistance to high velocity sea water
  • Resistant to a sour-gas environment
  • Excellent mechanical properties from sub-zero temperatures up to about 480C
  • Non-magnetic alloy

 

Short Destription:

MONEL alloy K-500 (UNS NO5500) is a nickel-copper alloy which combines the excellent corrosion resistance of MONEL alloy 400 with the added advantages of greater strength and hardness. The increased properties are obtained by adding aluminum and titanium to the nickel-copper base, and by heating under controlled conditions so that submicroscopic particles of Ni3 (Ti, Al) are precipitated throughout the matrix. The thermal processing used to effect precipitation is commonly called age hardening or aging.
