Datasheet: Nickel® 200

Nickel® 200

Nickel® 200 is commercially pure and has good mechanical properties and excellent corrosion resistance to alkalis i.e. Sodium hydroxide. It also has good electrical, thermal and magneto-strictive properties. The corrosion resistance of Nickel® 200 means it is suited to products in food handling, synthetic fibres, and caustic alkalis. Other applications include aerospace components, electrical and electronic parts, and chemical shipping drums.

Nickel® 200 is also known as Phyweld 200.

Properties

The typical mechanical properties of Nickel® 200:

ConditionApprox. tensile strengthApprox. operating temperature
Annealed<500 N/mm² (<73 ksi)Tensile strength and elongation drop significantly at temperatures above 315 °C (600 °F).
Service temperature is dependent on environment, load and size range.
Hard Drawn
700 – 900 N/mm² (102 – 131 ksi)Tensile strength and elongation drop significantly at temperatures above 315 °C (600 °F).
Service temperature is dependent on environment, load and size range.

The above tensile strength ranges are typical. If you require different please ask.
