Monel Plates & Sheets Manufacturer & Exporter – USA Piping Solution

When tough conditions demand uncompromising materials, Monel Plates & Sheets from USA Piping Solution are the answer. As a specialist manufacturer, supplier, and global exporter, we focus on these high-performance nickel-copper alloys. Our Monel 400 and Monel K500 grades deliver resilience, durability, and robust corrosion resistance for critical applications. Every Nickel Copper Alloy Plate meets ASTM B127 standards, offering reliability you can depend on.

Understanding Monel Plates & Sheets

What makes Monel Plates & Sheets special? They stem from nickel-copper alloys (often up to 67% nickel), a blend offering impressive strength, good formability, and exceptional resistance to corrosives like seawater, steam, salts, and caustics. These flat-rolled products are engineered for dependability where ordinary materials fail.

Two key grades lead the way:

• Monel 400: A versatile workhorse, great against flowing seawater, many acids, and alkalis. It maintains strength across a useful temperature range and welds well.
• Monel K500: Adds significant strength and hardness to Monel 400's corrosion resistance, thanks to added aluminum and titanium (allowing precipitation-hardening). It's also low permeability and non-magnetic down to -101°C.

These alloys become Monel Plates (thicker, ≥5mm) and Monel Sheets (<5mm) via hot or cold-rolling, chosen based on your project's specific needs for thickness, strength, and corrosion challenges.

Monel Grades We Offer

USA Piping Solution provides key Monel grades, primarily the versatile Monel 400 and high-strength Monel K500.

Monel 400 Plates & Sheets (UNS N04400)

For adaptability, Monel 400 (UNS N04400) excels. It handles diverse corrosive environments, performing well in marine settings against flowing seawater and resisting stress corrosion cracking. Monel 400 Plates are effective against hydrofluoric acid, sulfuric acid, and alkalies, vital in chemical processing. It also resists neutral/alkaline salts, offers good mechanical properties (sub-zero to ~550°C), and is ductile with good thermal conductivity. Fabrication is straightforward. Key industries: marine, chemical/hydrocarbon processing, heat exchangers, valves/pumps. As your Monel Alloy Sheet Supplier, we ensure ASTM B127 compliance.

Monel K500 Plates & Sheets (UNS N05500)

Monel K500 (UNS N05500) combines Monel 400's corrosion resistance with much greater strength and hardness (via added Al/Ti and age-hardening). Monel K500 Sheets and Plates boast roughly triple the yield strength and double the tensile strength of Monel 400 (age-hardened). It retains strength to 650°C, resists sour gas well, and is low permeability/non-magnetic to ~ -135°C. Applications: pump shafts, impellers, doctor blades, oil well tools, marine fasteners, electronics.

Chemical Composition & Mechanical Properties

Monel's specific chemistry dictates its robust mechanical properties.

Typical Chemical Footprint (%):

Element	Monel 400 (N04400)	Monel K500 (N05500)
Ni	63.0 min	63.0 min
Cu	28.0 – 34.0	27.0 – 33.0
Fe	2.5 max	2.0 max
Al	-	2.30 – 3.15
Ti	-	0.35 – 0.85

Monel 400 (Annealed):

• Tensile: 480–585 MPa
• Yield (0.2%): 195–345 MPa
• Elongation: 35–50%

Monel K500 (Age-Hardened):

• Tensile: 965–1100 MPa
• Yield (0.2%): 690–800 MPa
• Elongation: 20–25%

Performance Highlights:

• Corrosion Resistance: Excellent against seawater, HF/sulfuric acids, alkalies. Resists pitting, crevice corrosion, and chloride-ion SCC.
• Strength: Monel 400 offers good strength; Monel K500 (age-hardened) is exceptionally strong.
• Temperature Range: Good properties from sub-zero to elevated temps (Monel 400 to ~550°C; K500 to ~650°C).
• Fabricability: Monel 400 is readily worked; K500 is also fabricable, though its higher strength requires consideration.
  These Nickel Copper Alloy Plates are engineered for demanding service.

Common Applications & Industries

The unique benefits of Monel Plates & Sheets make them vital in many sectors:

• Marine: Propeller/pump shafts, impellers, hull plating, seawater piping, desalination.
• Chemical Processing: Vessels, reactors, piping for HF/sulfuric acids, alkalies. See our Monel Pipes & Tubes.
• Heat Exchangers: Tubing, tube sheets for corrosive streams.
• Aerospace: Monel K500 Sheets for high-strength, non-magnetic parts.
• Oil & Gas: Valve trim, downhole tools (sour gas/NACE MR0175), distillation parts.
• Power Generation: Feedwater heaters, condenser tubing.
  In short, Monel 400 Plates and K500 products solve problems where lesser alloys would fail.
