As industries around the world push for higher and higher levels of performance in their materials, metallurgists continue to develop new and exciting alloys to meet today's challenges. Regardless of the environment, strain, or temperature that today's specialty metals need to operate in, there are choices available to engineer a range of solutions in a variety of applications. Combining the global resources of the Central Wire Group of Companies, including our Metallurgical Knowledge and production experience, Central Wire UK can provide the highest quality solutions, including the right alloy for your application, each and every time.
Corrosion is and has always been a challenge to incorporating metals into your products. In applications where environments can vary, such as oil and gas, transportation, and aerospace, preparing your products for the wide range of potential interactions with the environment can be difficult. Central Wire UK offers an assortment of high Corrosion resistant alloys that can operate across a wide spectrum of environments. We've listed several of those alloys below to help understand their qualities, and to aide in your specification of the proper alloy in your application.
UNS N04400 – Ni: 63.0-70.0% and Cu: 28.0-34.0% with full chemistry to ASTM B164
CWI Nickel Specialty Series Monel K500 is a precipitation-hardenable nickel-copper alloy which combines the superior corrosion resistance of alloy 400 with an enhanced strength and hardness. UNS N05500 – Al: 2.3-3.15%, Ni: 63.0-70.0%, Ti: 0.35-0.85% and Cu: 27.0-33.0% with full chemistry to ASTM B865
CWI Nickel Specialty Series Inconel 625 is a nickel-based alloy used for its high strength as well as outstanding corrosion resistance.
UNS N06625 – Cr: 20.0-23.0%, Mo: 8.0-1.0% Ni: 58.0% min and Cb: 3.15-4.15%
CWI Nickel Prime Series MP35N®* is a multi-phase, nickel-cobalt based alloy that has a unique combination of ultrahigh tensile strength, good toughness and excellent corrosion resistance. UNS R30035 – Cr: 19.0-21.0%, Mo: 9.0-10.5%, Ni: 33.0-37.0% and Co: Balance per AMS 5844
The above alloys exhibit excellent corrosion resistance in a range of environments and should be considered for your next challenging application. Whether your need slicklines for downhole applications, profiled wire for an oil and gas filtration screen, spring wire for a challenging equipment build, or simply bulk round wire for a forming project, we can help you engineer the right solution for your market.
