Monel K500 plates have a service life temperature of between -200 °C to 600 °C, thus offering an excellent mechanical stability. The material can give a yield strength of 690 MPa and tensile strength of 965 MPa which will be more durable even when subjected to a high pressure. The Monel K500 sheets and plates have outstanding toughness and ageing-hardening properties, and thus they can easily last to over 2530 years of service, particularly in a marine and sub-sea environment.
Alloy K500 sheets are the perfect material in pump shafts, valve parts, heat exchanger plates, turbine blades and other essential fastener systems due to these properties. Monel 400 pipe and sheets Industrial users of Monel 400 usually choose K500 grade when they need more strength, but the corrosion-resistant properties remain the same.
What Are Monel K500 Plates and Sheets?
The Monel K500 plates and sheet are made of a nickel-copper material that is stronger and has a better hardness than traditional Monel alloys. Designed with regulated additions of titanium and aluminium, Alloy K500 is developed as exceptional after age hardening in spite of retaining its non-magnetic characteristic at low temperatures. These plates and sheets are in compliance with ASTM B1 27 and UNS N05500 standards, which guarantee the stability of engineered systems. They are tough enough, and stable to thermal variation and corrosive industrial media; thus, they are used in complex fabrication work in marine, petrochemical, fastener, pump and pressure-handling equipment.
