Monel® Metal Alloys
Monel® (cupronickel) is a metal superalloy that contains approximately 65-70% nickel, 20-29% copper, and 5% manganese. Monel® nickel-copper alloy materials display a strong resistance to chemical corrosion, salt water, acids, alkaline solutions, and are commonly utilized in highly corrosive environments. Monel® metal alloys are most utilized in the oil, marine, and chemical processing industries.

Monel® for Highly Corrosive Environments
Magellan Metals offers Monel® nickel-copper alloys in a wide range of formats including wire, tube, plate, sheet, pipe fittings, bar, flanges, and more. View the individual product pages below for more information about the chemical analysis, available formats, and applications for each grade of Monel® we offer.
Monel® 400
Corrosion resistant Monel® 400 provides good weldability and moderate to high strength metal characteristics. Monel® 400 is resistant to sea water, high temperature steam, caustic solutions, and salt. Monel® 400 Series is extremely useful in temperatures up to 1000°F (538°C) and high temperature steam atmospheres.Monel® R405
Monel® R405 is the free machining version of the 400 Series. The added sulfur act as chip breakers during machining, providing excellent strength, corrosion resistance, and weldability. Monel® R405 is commonly utilized within marine applications and other non-oxidizing chlorine solutions.Monel® K500
Combining corrosion resistance with added strength and hardness, Monel® K500’s increased property features are obtained by adding aluminum and titanium to the nickel-copper base. Monel® K500 is highly suitable for a wide range of corrosive applications including centrifugal pump shafts.Monel® Material Advantages
