The flat surface and uniform thickness of our Monel plates ensure easy cutting, shaping, and welding, providing the versatility required for critical applications across various industries. Whether you need a reliable material for pressure vessels, heat exchangers, or structural components, our Monel plates provide the strength and dependability you can trust.

Equivalent Grades of Monel Cold Rolled Plates

Monel 400

Monel 400 is one of the most sought-after grades of cold-rolled Monel plates. Comprising approximately 67% nickel and 23% copper, with small amounts of iron, manganese, carbon, and silicon, Monel 400 is known for its exceptional resistance to seawater corrosion and stress-corrosion cracking in freshwater environments. It is also highly resistant to sulfuric acid, hydrofluoric acid, and alkaline solutions, making it ideal for marine and chemical applications.

Monel K500

Monel K500 is another prominent grade of cold-rolled Monel plates, featuring a composition of approximately 63% nickel and 30% copper, along with small amounts of aluminum and titanium. This grade is distinguished by its higher strength and hardness, achieved through an age-hardening process. While Monel K500 offers increased mechanical properties, it may have slightly lower corrosion resistance than Monel 400 in specific environments.

Monel 404 (UNS N04404)

Monel 404 is an alloy that includes copper, nickel, iron, manganese, silicon, carbon, and sulfur. While it offers good corrosion resistance in seawater, its mechanical properties are lower than those of Monel 400, making it suitable for applications where moderate strength is acceptable.

Schedules of Monel Cold Rolled Plates

Monel cold-rolled plates are available in various schedules, which determine the wall thickness and, consequently, the pressure rating and mechanical properties of the plate. The most common schedules for Monel cold-rolled plates include Schedule 10S, Schedule 40S, and Schedule 80S.

  • Schedule 10S: This schedule features a thinner wall, making it suitable for low-pressure applications such as water supply lines and drainage systems.
  • Schedule 40S: With a medium wall thickness, Schedule 40S plates are ideal for general-purpose applications, including chemical processing plants, food processing equipment, and oil refineries.
  • Schedule 80S: Schedule 80S plates have the thickest wall, making them well-suited for high-pressure applications such as steam boilers, power generation plants, and nuclear reactors.

FAQ

What is Monel used for?

Monel is a type of nickel-copper alloy known for its excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in marine environments and acidic conditions. Due to its resistance to corrosion and high strength, Monel is commonly used in applications like marine equipment (such as boat propellers and valves), aerospace components, chemical processing equipment, oil and gas industry components, and in the manufacturing of musical instruments.

Is Monel stronger than steel?

Monel is not inherently stronger than all types of steel. The strength of Monel, a nickel-copper alloy, can vary depending on its specific composition and heat treatment. In general, some steel alloys, like high-strength stainless steels or carbon steels, can have higher tensile strength than Monel. However, Monel is valued for its corrosion resistance in harsh environments, which is often more important than its strength in certain applications.

What type of material is Monel?

Monel is a type of nickel-copper alloy. It is primarily composed of nickel (typically around 65-70%) and copper, with smaller amounts of other elements such as iron, manganese, and small traces of other metals. Monel alloys are known for their excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in marine and acidic environments. They are used in various industries where resistance to corrosion and high-stress conditions is crucial.
