Not every grade is stocked in every form — cast superalloys, for example, are supplied as master alloy ingots and investment castings rather than wrought bar. Contact us for current stock and size ranges.
Supplied to ASTM, ASME, AMS, DIN/W.Nr., EN, GB and GOST specifications. The individual grade articles list the applicable standard numbers for each product form.
Monel is a family of nickel-copper alloys (typically about 63-70% nickel) with excellent resistance to seawater, hydrofluoric acid and caustic solutions.
Monel K-500 adds aluminium and titanium for precipitation hardening, roughly doubling the strength of Monel 400 while retaining similar corrosion resistance.
Yes. Monel 400 is a standard material for seawater pump shafts, valve trim and high-velocity marine service, alongside copper-nickel 70/30 for piping.
Monel R-405 is the free-machining variant of Monel 400 with controlled sulphur for improved screw-machine productivity.
Yes, typically with ENiCu-7 / ERNiCu-7 filler metal (AWS A5.14) and clean joint preparation to avoid porosity.
