Cupronickel has proved itself as an alloy that shows excellent resistance to corrosion in both fresh and sea water. In addition, it has high thermal conductivity and acceptable mechanical properties. Due to the above characteristics, cupronickel pipe is quite popular in the domestic and foreign markets of products made of nonferrous metals and alloys. In some industries, it is the best solution.
In Metotechnics you can buy cupronickel pipe. For orders that can be made in different ways (phone, fax, email, website), the grades MNZHMc10-1-1, MNZHMc30-1-1, MN19VI and others are available.
More information about these grades, production methods and application areas of these products are presented on this page in the appropriate sections.
Grades
Pipes are made of copper-nickel alloy cupronickel of the grades MNZHMc10-1-1, MNZHMc30-1-1.
These materials differ from each other in the content of nickel + cobalt (Ni + Co). MNZHMc10-1-1 contains 9-11%, MNZHMc30-1-1 - 29-33%. These alloys also include iron (Fe) and manganese (Mn).
The chemical composition of the grades MNZHMc10-1-1 and MNZHMc30-1-1 is regulated by GOST 492-2006.
Production
Cupronickel pipes are produced using technological operations of broaching or cold rolling. Processing is carried out without heating the workpiece, therefore, the products are obtained cold-deformed.
Cupronickel pipes are made round seamless. They can be hard, semi-hard, or soft.
The sizes, delivery status, and mechanical properties of the described products are regulated by the standard GOST 10092-2006.
Application
Cupronickel pipes are widely used in areas related to interaction with water. They are actively used in heat exchangers and marine shipbuilding, because this material has good corrosion resistance in the air atmosphere, sea and fresh water. One of the most important components of heat exchangers is produced from the described products - the pipe cooler system, which consists directly of pipes and pipe boards (sheets). More information about the design and operating principle of devices intended for cooling is presented in the articleApplication of cupronickel alloy products in heat exchangers.
