Nickel alloys are metals that contain
large amounts of nickel for the purpose of increasing
the level of resistance to corrosion and heat-induced
weakness or softening. Sandmeyer Steel Company houses
an extensive inventory of nickel alloy plate in a variety
of thicknesses and additionally provides a wide variety
of value added processes for manufacturing an exact
nickel alloy part or component. Please view the nickel
alloy inventory section now or continue reading
about various grades of nickel alloy below.
Nickel Alloy Grades
Available at Sandmeyer Steel Company:
C276 nickel alloy is available in thicknesses
from 3/16” to 2” and is a highly corrosion
resistant material that is valuable in a variety of
industries. Its composition of nickel, molybdenum, chromium,
iron, and tungsten make it useful for welding applications
because it resists intergranular attack in the heat
affected zone.
A330 nickel alloy, known for resistance
to carburization and oxidization in high temperatures,
is available in thicknesses from 3/16” through
1”. Combining nickel, iron, and chromium, this
nickel alloy is beneficial when thermal cycling and
carburization is present.
A400 nickel alloy combines nickel
and copper for properties that include resistance to
corrosive media that range from mildly oxidizing to
neutral. A400 is also used in marine and nonoxidizing
chloride applications. A ductile alloy, A400 does not
have high levels of strength in the annealed condition
but in the cold rolled form can be very strong. It is
available in thicknesses from 3/16” to 3”.
A600 nickel alloy is a combination
of nickel and chromium that can be used in temperatures
ranging from cryogenic up to 2000° F (1039°C).
Alloy 600’s nickel content provides a high level
of general and localized corrosion resistance; it is
available in thicknesses from 3/16” to 2”.
A625 nickel alloy is stocked by
Sandmeyer Steel Company in 3/16” to 2” and
is useful in seawater, aerospace, and chemical processing
applications. With an austenitic nickel base, alloy
625 can be used in cryogenic temperatures but also retains
its properties in temperatures up to 2000°F (1093°C).
A800/A800H/A800AT nickel alloys
are available in thicknesses ranging from 3/16”
to 2”. These alloys combine 32% nickel with iron
and chromium to resist oxidation and carburization in
elevated temperatures and also to avoid chloride stress
corrosion cracking as well as embrittlement.
Regardless of the demanding applications
of your industry, Sandmeyer Steel Company has the nickel
alloy plate products that withstand even the most corrosive
environments. Please visit the nickel
alloy section to learn more about each individual
alloy.
