NICKEL ALLOYS

Nickel and nickel alloys are non-ferrous metals with high strength and toughness, excellent corrosion resistance, and superior elevated temperature properties. Pure nickel is a bright silver-white metallic element of the iron group and is hard, malleable, and ductile. Pure nickel itself is tough and corrosion resistant and provides an excellent base for developing specialized alloys.

 

There are three common types of nickel-based alloys which are formed for different applications.

 

Nickel chromium alloys are designed to resist failure from both oxidation and loss of strength at high temperatures. In some applications, where conditions are less demanding, some nickel is replaced with iron to decrease costs. Nickel alloys are not suitable for high temperature sulfur rich environments such as coal-burning plants. Other metals like molybdenum, iron, and aluminum are added in specific amounts for specialized applications.

 

Nickel copper alloys are particularly useful when magnetic permeability may be an issue. Although the introduction of copper results in lower tensile strength and ductility, the lack of magnetic properties make them an excellent choice for oncology systems, shielding electrical sensors in applications such as well logging, or rotating inertia members used near guidance systems.

 

Nickel iron alloys are used for controlled expansion since the combined thermal expansion coefficient of iron and nickel is relatively low and constant over a large range of temperatures. They are used in applications where mechanical properties must remain constant with temperature changes, such as in precision springs or glass seals.

 

If you’re having a hard time finding the metal you need, let us do the work for you. Hard-to-find alloys are our specialty. If we don't have the material in stock, we will search for it at over 45 different manufacturers and warehouses all over the U.S. who we network with. When we find it, be assured that you will receive a great price, delivered to your dock within days.

 

With access to large inventories across the U.S.A, Beartech Alloys is able to support the growing demands of its vast customer base from several different warehouses. We have shipping locations in California, Texas, Georgia, New Jersey, Chicago and Oregon.
