The Monel K500 Perforated Metal is basically a nickel and copper alloy that supplies superior resistance to corrosion and like monel 400 and large power and toughness. The enhanced features are received with the addition of aluminum and titanium to the monel.
The blend of smallest magnetic permeability, large firmness and superior resistance to corrosion is a benefit in the various applications of Monel K500 Perforated Metal such as string of links, fasteners and spring in the ocean applications, pump and valve components for the chemical remedy, health cutting-edges and scrap for the pulp treatment in the paper commerce.
