What is the Young's modulus of Monel K500?
Alloy K500 (UNS N05500)
Alloy K500 is a precipitation hardened nickel copper alloy also known as Monel K500
While Gnee Steel supplies Alloy K500 in all conditions, we primarily supply material in the hot worked and precipitation treated conditions. Both forms offer an optimal combination of high strength and ductility over the entire size range. The enhanced properties are obtained by adding aluminum and titanium to a nickel copper matrix and heating under controlled conditions to cause "ϒ" Ni3 (Ti, Al) particles to precipitate through the matrix. The heat treatment used to achieve precipitation is generally referred to as age hardening or aging.
Advantages
This alloy has excellent corrosion resistance in a variety of environments including seawater, hydrofluoric acid, sulfuric acid and alkalis. It has been found to tolerate sour gas environments and is listed to NACE MR1075. Very low corrosion rates in high velocity seawater and high strength make it ideal for use in ship shafts in stationary or slowly moving seawater where fouling may be followed by pitting, but this pitting slows down after a fairly rapid initial attack.
Alloy K500 is refined via electroslag refining (ESR), ensuring the cleanest, highest quality material available. This increased alloy purity limits the potential for hard non-metallic inclusions, which can increase machining difficulty, machining time and ultimately lead to part failure. It also has low magnetic permeability and is non-magnetic down to -101°C (-150°F).
