Description
C70600 Copper Nickel Round Bars
C70600 Copper Nickel Round Bars is one type of Copper-Nickel Alloys, which has Excellent Corrosion Resistance even in Marine Environments. This alloy possesses average high strength and good creep resistance at high temperatures, and costs more in comparison to copper-aluminum alloys and other alloys with similar mechanical properties.
Copper Nickel Alloys have excellent resistance to biofouling and marine corrosion, and possess good fabricability. Copper gains more strength and corrosion resistance when nickel is added to it.
Cu-Ni 90/10 offers superior resistance to general corrosion and marine water attacks. It resists corrosion by fast moving water. It has nominal temperature coefficient of electric resistance. Alloy 90/10 prevents stress corrosion cracking and pitting and crevice corrosion. The resistance to soil erosion and abrasive fluids is incomparable in the aqueous conditions. It is commonly employed in seawater hardware, condenser tubes, automotive cooling systems and in manufacturing coin.
UNS C70600 Copper Nickel is a 90% copper and 10% nickel alloy with tiny traces of other elements such as iron and manganese. Copper increases the material’s overall strength, and the trace elements improve corrosion resistance. The result is an engineering alloy that offers outstanding corrosion resistance, particularly in marine/saltwater environments.
