Monel 500 pipe
Key Specifications/Special Features:
A precipitation-hardenable nickel-copper alloy that combines the corrosion resistance of MONEL alloy 400 with greater strength and hardness. It also has low permeability and is nonmagnetic to temperatures as low as (-101°C). Used for pump shafts, oil-well tools and instruments, doctor blades and scrapers,springs, valve trim, fasteners, and marine propeller shafts.

Feature
Monel K500 has excellent corrosion resistance in an extensive range of natural and chemical environments, excellent resistance to chloride-ion stress-corrosion cracking and very high strength and hardness. After age-hardening, Monel K500 has approximately 2 to 3 times higher mechanical properties than the nickel-copper alloy (Monel 400), high tensile properties up to about 650 ℃, good corrosion fatigue resistance and ow permeability with non-magnetic down to -135 ℃.
Application
1. Valve seals, pump sleeves and wear rings in marine environments – high strength and resistance to seawater;
2. Fasteners, e.g. bolts, used in marine atmospheres and tidal waters – resistance to chloride-containing environments;
3. Doctor blades and scrapers;
4. Towing cable armouring – high strength, non-magnetic properties and resistance to seawater;
5. Oil well drilling equipment such as non-magnetic drill collars, valves and instrumentation sleeves – resistance to chloride-containing media and sour-gas environments;
6.Springs – resistance to a variety of corrosive media;
7.Aviation instrument components – non-magnetic properties
