Monel K-500 Rod is basically a nickel and copper alloy that supplies superior resistance to corrosion and like monel 400 and large power and toughness. It is effectively non magnetic at the minimum temperatures and utilized for resistance to corrosion springs at the temperature of 500oF, higher capacity towards the stress corrosion cracking in the particular conditions.
