Nickel Alloy Pipe & Tube

Nickel Alloy Pipe & Tube Grades and Applications

Nickel alloys are selected in those piping systems which are required to work in corrosive and high-temperature and pressure conditions. The special combination of mechanical strength, thermal stability as well as corrosion resistance, has made nickel alloy pipes and tubes a reliable choice in industries whose failure to use a material may result in expensive lost time or the safety issue.

Nickel 200 and Nickel 201 are some of the widely used nickel alloy grades that are still crucial in applications that have caustic solutions, neutral salts and reducing chemicals. They have a high level of nickel which makes them very resistant to corrosion and low level of its variation (Nickel 201) makes them more stable in high temperatures. The grades are commonly used in heat exchangers, chemical transfer lines, evaporators and general industrial tubing systems.

The page also happens to be a key pillar of the extended family of nickel-based materials. Engineering teams will frequently analyze the alternative nickel alloy properties in related alloy systems such as Inconel, Monel and Hastelloy. The category has some performance benefits which include the high temperature performance in Inconel (high temperature) or seawater in Monel or chemical resistance in Hastelloy. The connection with these cluster pages will aid in the selection of the material in an informed way and enhance overall topicality.

The use of nickel alloys is still on the increase in the chemical processing, petrochemicals, marine engineering, oil and gas and power generation industries because the material has a long service life and the performance can be anticipated within extreme operating temperatures.

Grade Description & Key Property Ideal Applications
Nickel 200 (UNS N02200) Commercially pure nickel tubing with excellent mechanical properties and high thermal conductivity. Food processing, caustic evaporators, electronics, handling of caustic alkalis (up to 315 °C.)

Frequently Asked Questions on Nickel Alloy Pipes and Tubes

Nickel 200 and Nickel 201 are both commercial pure forms of nickel alloys. Nickel 201 is low in carbon content, hence it is more stable in high-temperature applications. Nickel 200 is more applicable in general corrosive conditions, whereas Nickel 201 is applied in conditions of more than 315 o C to prevent graphitization.

Nickel alloy pipes and tubes are also applicable in the chemical processing, marine systems, heat exchangers, evaporators, refinery units and high-purity handling systems because they have corrosion resistance and thermal stability.

Yes. The Nickel 200 and Nickel 201 tubing has a very high resistance to sulphuric acid, hydrochloric acid, phosphoric acid and caustic solutions and hence they can be used in chemical environments that are very demanding.

There are seamless pipes, welded pipes, redrawn tubing, boiler tubes, heaters tubes, condenser tubes, heat exchanger tubes and precision instrumentation tubing.

Selection of the grade is dependent on temperature, media composition and pressure. Nickel 200 performs best in neutral and reducing environments and Nickel 201 is used where there is need of higher temperature resistance and low carbon content.

Yes. Nickel tubing can be supplied from 6 mm OD up to 250 mm OD with customized wall thickness options, depending on project and industry requirements.

The majority of the suppliers, Stellar Alloys included, offer compliance with ASTM/ASME, PMI test reports, hydrostatic test results and MTCs (EN 10204 3.1/3.2), and guarantee the quality of materials.
