Monel 400 / K500 Products

Monel

Monel is a series of nickel-copper alloys including tiny quantities of iron, manganese, carbon, and silicon. Nickel content ranges from 52 to 67 percent. Because it contains less than 60% copper, monel is not a cupronickel alloy.

Lakshya International is the largest supplier of Monel 400 and k500 Products, For any Enquiries get in touch with us, We are your trusted brand for Monel Products.

Characteristics of Monel

Monel is stronger than steel

Malleable

Low thermal expansion coefficient

Highly resistant to alkalis

Welding, brazing, and soldering are all options.

Market Applications

Monel began to be phased out in the 1950s in favor of stainless steel, which could make the same shapes at a lower cost (due to the use of less nickel).
