Nickel Alloy Metal Tubing. 400. Imperial. Dimensions ranging from 1/16″ to 1″. Length per tube is 6m.
Alloy 400 is a copper-nickel alloy (approx. 67% Ni – 23% Cu) that is resistant to seawater and steam at high temperatures as well as to salt and caustic solutions. It is a solid-solution alloy that can be hardened only by cold working. It’s widely used in marine applications and other nox-oxidising chloride solutions. This nickel alloy is particularly resistant to hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids when they are de-aerated. As would be expected from its high copper content, alloy 400 is rapidly attacked by nitric acid and ammonia systems.
