CP & Low Alloy Nickels

Composition

​

93-99.99% min Nickel, commonly alloyed with Copper, Iron, Manganese, Carbon, Silicon and traces of Aluminium and Titanium.

Common Shapes

​

CP and Low Alloy Nickels are commonly available in

​

• Sheets and Plates

• Welded & Seamless Tubes and Pipes 

• Structural profiles

• Wire

• Rods

• Bars

• Fittings

​

(Not all alloys or tempers available in all shapes)

Characteristics

​​

• High corrosion resistance

• Passive Nickel-Oxide surface film resists attack from reducing agents and oxidation.

​

Uses

​

• Machinery used for chemical processing.

• Electrical industry applications

Weldability

​

Welding of CP and Low Alloy Nickels is easily achieved by GMAW and GTAW welding processes, with no post-weld treatment required.

Machinability

​

CP and Low Alloy Nickels are machinable once they have been cold work hardened.
