Monel 400/N04400
Nickel Alloy 400 and Monel 400, also known as UNS N04400, is a ductile, nickel-copper based alloy comprised essentially of two-thirds nickel and one third copper. Nickel Alloy 400 is known for resistance to a variety of corrosive conditions, including alkalies (or acid like substances), saltwater, hydrofluoric acid and sulfuric acid. Other advantages of using this alloy are its toughness and high strength over a broad temperature range; it can also be manipulated to become magnetic if desired. Fortunately, if Nickel Alloy 400 doesn't meet your specific needs, NSA stocks other nickel-copper based alloys to choose from.
Applications
Marine fixtures, pumps, valves and piping systems for sea water application. Because of its good corrosion resistance it is also used in chemical plant equipment.
