Copper Nickel 90/10 Welded PipeCopper and nickel grade is very well known for its long-term performance at the corrosive environment. The oxidation resistance, ability to oppose rusting and resisting algae growth on its surface has been ideal and successfully used for marine applications. There are the numbers of copper and nickel grades are formed to pose these attributes. But the combination of Copper Nickel 90/10 and 70/30 offers best properties for marine applications thus these are used broadly in seawater applications. The alloy 90/10 and 70/30 has been conventionally used for making structures of ships. Primarily, from those properties, these are widely used for water distribution. We supply Copper Nickel 70/30 Pipes, Copper Nickel 70/30 Sheets & Copper Nickel 70/30 Bars at reasonable prices.

Copper Nickel 70/30:

There is a composition of 70% copper and 30% nickel also with the addition of iron and manganese. The composition of these elements makes it more resistance to abrasion and corrosion. However, the slightly improved strength than 90/10 tends them for long-term engineering applications. Also, this grade works excellently worked in high-velocity water by offering good corrosion resistance.

Copper Nickel 90/10:

This alloy is designed as a cost-effective substitute for 70/30 copper-nickel composition. Moreover, these have the composition of 1% iron made to increase resistance to impingement corrosion, abrasion and reducing corrosion. This result, the turbulent flow of fluid easily flowed with high jet velocity. These have good strength at moderate and elevated temperatures. These can be formed with both hot and cold working process and also it has good weldability attribute.

Good about Copper Nickel 90/10 and 70/30:

The engineers consider three principles while designing these, Galvanized carbon steel, copper-nickel, and reinforced plastic. The galvanized carbon steel is low in cost, plastics are lightweight, corrosion resistance, and have anti-biofoul property. The copper-nickel grade is firmly developed with mechanical advantages and it is the most economical alloy as per the life cost cycle.

Following are the list of Copper Nickel 90/10 and 70/30 attributes drawn for engineering applications. These are corrosion resistance, no galvanic corrosion, anti-biofouling property, high strength and ductility, damage resistance, and many more.

Material selection:

The manufacturers select only prominent raw materials from reputable members to gain topmost strength in fabricated materials. The production undergoes set norms by the industries also national and international standards are considered while forming merchandise. Availability of advanced machinery and tools makes them in desired dimensions and also in the perfect surface finish. Moreover, the industrial coats and surface finishing process makes them durable for adverse applications.

All the processed products go under several testing that ensures the reliability of products. The testing includes mechanical/ tensile test, destructive- non-destructive test, flattening test for sheets, flaring test, hardness test, and visual inspection. Other tests are also performed that includes- PMI test, radiographic test, ultrasonic test, pitting corrosion test, intergranular corrosion test, and third-party inspection.
