Monel 400 Wire Cloth

Monel 400 Wire cloth is corrosion resisting, such as resistant to sea water and steam at high temperatures, resistant to salt and caustic solutions. Meanwhile, Monel 400 wire cloth exhibits characteristic like high strength.

Monel 400 wire cloth has low corrosion rate in flowing brackish or seawater while performing excellent resistance to stress-corrosion cracking in most freshwaters. This wire cloth's good resistance to a variety of corrosive conditions contributes to the wide application in marine and other non-oxidizing chloride solutions.Monel 400 wire cloth is particularly resistant to hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids when they are de-aerated. However, its high copper content, make monel 400 can be rapidly attacked by nitric acid and ammonia systems.

Monel 400 wire cloth is immune to chloride ion stress corrosion cracking in typical environments. Besides, it is good corrosion resistant in reducing environments, but poor in oxidizing conditions. It is not useful in oxidizing acids, such as nitric acid and nitrous.

Monel 400 Wire cloth would be attacked in sulfur-bearing gases above approximately 700° F and molten sulfur attacks the alloy at temperatures over approximately 500° F. However, it is resistant to most alkalis, salts, waters, food products, organic substances and atmospheric conditions at normal and elevated temperatures.

Monel 400 wire cloth also has good Adaptability to wide range of application temperature.It maintains good mechanical properties at subzero temperatures, as well as in temperatures up to 1000° F, The melting point is 2370-2460° F.Monel 400 wire cloth offers about the same corrosion resistance as nickel but with higher maximum working pressures and temperatures and at a lower cost due to its superior ability to be machined.
