### **Product Introduction: Alloy 450 & Monel 450 Strip** #### **Overview** We supply high-performance nickel-alloy strips in two distinct grades: **Alloy 450 (UNS N06450)** and **Monel 450 (UNS N05500)**. Precision-rolled to exacting tolerances, our strip products offer excellent surface finish, consistent mechanical properties, and superior formability. Understanding the difference between these two alloys is critical for selecting the right material for your application. --- ### **Part 1: Alloy 450 (UNS N06450) Strip** Alloy 450 is a **solid-solution strengthened nickel-chromium-iron alloy** designed for exceptional high-temperature oxidation resistance and good corrosion resistance. It is an ideal choice for applications requiring long-term thermal stability. #### **Key Features & Advantages** * **Outstanding Oxidation Resistance:** Suitable for continuous service up to 1177°C (2150°F). * **Thermal Stability:** Resists embrittlement from sigma phase formation during prolonged high-temperature exposure. * **Good Formability & Weldability:** The strip can be easily fabricated in the annealed condition. * **High Strength at Elevated Temperatures:** Retains a significant portion of its room-temperature strength at high temperatures. #### **Chemical Composition (Typical % Weight)** | Element | Content (%) | | :--- | :--- | | **Nickel (Ni)** | 73.0 min | | **Chromium (Cr)** | 14.0 - 18.0 | | **Iron (Fe)** | 5.0 - 9.0 | | **Manganese (Mn)** | 1.0 max | | **Silicon (Si)** | 0.5 max | | **Copper (Cu)** | 0.5 max | | **Carbon (C)** | 0.15 max | | **Sulfur (S)** | 0.015 max | #### **Physical & Mechanical Properties (Strip - Annealed)** | Property | Value | | :--- | :--- | | **Density** | 8.22 g/cm³ (0.297 lb/in³) | | **Melting Point** | ~1371°C (~2500°F) | | **Tensile Strength** | 655 MPa (95 ksi) min | | **Yield Strength (0.2% Offset)** | 275 MPa (40 ksi) min | | **Elongation** | 30 % min | | **Modulus of Elasticity** | 214 GPa (31 x 10⁶ psi) | #### **International Standards (Alloy 450 Strip)** * **ASTM:** ASTM B **168** (Plate, Sheet, and Strip) * **UNS:** **N06450** * **EN (Europe):** **NW 8345** (NiCr15Fe) * **DIN (Germany):** **2.4869** #### **Applications (Alloy 450 Strip)** * **Heat Treatment Furnaces:** Radiant tubes, muffles, retorts, and fixture strips. * **Aerospace:** Combustion chamber components, afterburner parts. * **Industrial Heating:** Heat exchanger strips, thermal processing belts. * **Electrical Components:** High-temperature resistor and heating element supports. --- ### **Part 2: Monel 450 (UNS N05500) Strip** Monel 450, more commonly known as **Monel K-500**, is a **precipitation-hardenable nickel-copper alloy**. It offers the excellent general corrosion resistance of Monel 400 but can be heat-treated to achieve much higher strength and hardness, making it perfect for demanding, high-strength applications in strip form. #### **Key Features & Advantages** * **High Strength-to-Weight Ratio:** Achieves properties comparable to many steels through aging. * **Excellent Corrosion Resistance:** Excellent resistance to seawater, sulfuric acid, alkalies, and a wide range of other corrosive media. * **Low Magnetic Permeability:** Essentially non-magnetic in the annealed condition. * **Good Spring Properties:** Aged strip is ideal for manufacturing corrosion-resistant springs and bellows. #### **Chemical Composition (Typical % Weight)** | Element | Content (%) | | :--- | :--- | | **Nickel (Ni)** | 63.0 min | | **Copper (Cu)** | 27.0 - 33.0 | | **Aluminum (Al)** | 2.30 - 3.15 | | **Titanium (Ti)** | 0.35 - 0.85 | | **Iron (Fe)** | 2.0 max | | **Manganese (Mn)** | 1.5 max | | **Carbon (C)** | 0.25 max | | **Silicon (Si)** | 0.5 max | #### **Physical & Mechanical Properties (Strip)** *Properties are highly dependent on heat treatment (temper).* | Property | Annealed Condition (Typical) | Aged Condition (Typical) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Density** | 8.44 g/cm³ (0.305 lb/in³) | - | | **Melting Point** | ~1316°C (~2400°F) | - | | **Tensile Strength** | 620-827 MPa (90-120 ksi) | 965-1207 MPa (140-175 ksi) | | **Yield Strength (0.2% Offset)** | 345-690 MPa (50-100 ksi) | 655-1035 MPa (95-150 ksi) | | **Elongation** | 20-35 % | 15-25 % | | **Hardness (Rockwell)** | B85 - C25 | C25 - C38 | #### **International Standards (Monel 450 Strip)** * **ASTM:** ASTM B **865** (Rod, Bar, Forgings) - Strip is often supplied to equivalent properties. * **AMS:** AMS 4676 (Strip) - A key aerospace standard for this material. * **UNS:** **N05500** * **Common Trade Name:** **Monel® K-500**. #### **Applications (Monel 450 Strip)** * **Springs & Fasteners:** Corrosion-resistant springs, clips, and bolts. * **Marine Engineering:** Scraper blades, doctor blades, chain drives, and seawater-exposed components. * **Oil & Gas:** Scrapers for wellbore cleaning, non-magnetic logging tool components. * **Pump & Valve Components:** Diaphragms, seals, and wear strips. --- ### **Selection Guide & Our Capabilities** | Feature | Alloy 450 (UNS N06450) | Monel 450 (UNS N05500) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Alloy System** | Nickel-Chromium-Iron | Nickel-Copper (Age-Hardenable) | | **Primary Advantage** | High-Temperature Strength & Oxidation Resistance | High Strength + Excellent Corrosion Resistance | | **Typical Strip Use** | Furnace Components, Thermal Processing | Springs, Scrapers, Wear Parts | **Our Strip Offerings:** We supply both alloys in various conditions (Annealed, Aged, Hard Tempers) with precise thickness and width tolerances.
