Monel K500 Seamless Pipe Annealing Aging Heat Exchangers Petrochemical Processing
1. As a leading supplier & manufacturer in China, DINGSCO supply
cost-effective Monel K-500 Products.
2. MONEL® alloy K-500 (UNS N05500 / W.Nr. 2.4375) 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.
3.Typical applications for MONEL alloy K-500 products are chains
and cables, fasteners and springs for marine service; pump and
valve components for chemical processing; doctor blades and
scrapers for pulp processing in paper production; oil well drill
collars and instruments, pump shafts and impellers, non-magnetic
housings, safety lifts and valves for oil and gas production; and
sensors and other electronic components.
4. A useful characteristic of the alloy is that it is virtually
nonmagnetic, even at quite low temperatures. It is possible,
however, to develop a magnetic layer on the surface of the material
during processing. Aluminum and copper may be selectively oxidized
during heating, leaving a magnetic nickel-rich film on the outside
of the piece. The effect is particularly noticeable on thin wire or
strip where there is a high ratio of surface to weight. The
magnetic film can be removed by pickling or bright dipping in acid,
and the nonmagnetic properties of the material will be restored.
The combination of low magnetic permeability, high strength and
good corrosion resistance has been used to advantage in a number of
applications, notably oil-well surveying equipment and electronic
components.
5. MONEL alloy K-500 has been found to have exceptionally good dimensional stability, both in long-time exposure tests and in cyclic tests. This property of the alloy has led to its use in high-precision devices, such as gyros. Age hardening causes an initial volume contraction. An annealed rod contracted 2.5 x 10-4 in. per in. during aging.
