Monel K500
Monel K-500 is a nickel-copper super alloy with characteristics and corrosion resistance same as the Monel 400. Due to the addition of aluminum and titanium Monel K-500 offers greater strength and hardness than Monel 400. In age-hardened condition, it has greater possibility towards stress corrosion cracking in some environments.
