Monel K500 Wire Mesh

Monel K500 wire mesh combines the excellent corrosion resistance of Monel 400 Mesh with the added advantage of greater strength and hardness. Monel K500 Wire Mesh is widely used in Sour gas servicee application, oil and gas production safety lifts and valves, and oil well industry tools and instruments.

Monel K-500 wire Mesh has approximately three times the yield strength and double the tensile strength when compared with alloy 400. When in the age-hardened condition, Monel K-500 wire Mesh has a greater tendency toward stress-corrosion cracking in some conditions than Monel 400 alloy Mesh. The strength of this nickel Copper alloy is maintained to 1200° F but stays ductile and tough down to temperatures of 400° F. Its melting range is 2400-2460° F.  

Nickel alloy K-500 wire Mesh has a greater tendency toward stress-corrosion cracking in some environments. Monel K-500 wire Meshis resistant to a sour-gas environment. The combined Characteristics of very low corrosion rates in high-velocity sear water and high strength make Monel K-500 wire mesh particularly suitable for marine service. In stagnant or slow-moving sea water, fouling may occur followed by pitting but this pitting slows down after a fairly rapid initial attack.
