Monel sheets are corrosion-resistant alloy sheets primarily composed of nickel (up to 67%) and copper, with added elements like iron and manganese to enhance strength and toughness. Known for their excellent resistance to seawater, acids (especially hydrofluoric and sulfuric), and alkalis, Monel sheets are ideal for use in highly corrosive environments. Common grades include Monel 400 and Monel K500, with K500 offering higher strength due to age-hardening capabilities.
These sheets are widely used in marine engineering, chemical and hydrocarbon processing, heat exchangers, pumps, and valves. Monel sheets conform to standards like ASTM B127 and offer good weldability and mechanical properties across a broad temperature range. Their durability, resistance to stress corrosion cracking, and performance in brine and saltwater make them a preferred choice for offshore and chemical applications.
