Monel 500 Angles and Channels
Monel 500 Angles and Channels are high-strength, corrosion-resistant nickel-copper alloys designed for critical structural and industrial applications. Manufactured using advanced metallurgical processes, these products provide superior mechanical properties, excellent resistance to seawater, acids, alkalis, and sour gases, and non-magnetic behavior. Rose Metal Industries supplies these products across Tamilnadu, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Telangana, Puducherry (Pondicherry), Andaman & Nicobar Islands, and to global markets..
The chemical composition of Monel 500 Angles and Channels typically includes 63–70% nickel, 27–33% copper, 2.3–3.15% aluminum, and 0.35–0.85% titanium, with minor traces of iron, manganese, silicon, carbon, and sulfur. This age-hardenable alloy offers higher strength and hardness compared to Monel 400, while maintaining exceptional corrosion resistance in marine, chemical, and industrial environments..
Mechanically, Monel 500 Angles and Channels demonstrate a tensile strength of approximately 930–1100 MPa and yield strength of around 690 MPa in the aged condition. Elongation ranges from 15–25%, and hardness in Rockwell C scale reaches 30–40 HRC. These properties ensure excellent fatigue resistance, dimensional stability, and durability under high stress and corrosive conditions..
Rose Metal Industries offers Monel 500 Angles and Channels in various sizes, thicknesses, and lengths. Hot-rolled, cold-rolled, and polished finishes are available to suit custom fabrication requirements. Standard and custom dimensions are provided for structural and mechanical applications, ensuring precise fit and long-term performance in demanding environments..
