Monel K500 flange is a piping component that is manufactured using Monel K500 material, it is a nickel-copper alloy that contains 63% of nickel and around 30% of copper. This material also contains other elements such as iron, titanium, and aluminum. UNS N05500 is known for its excellent corrosion resistance, high strength, and durability.These flanges are commonly used in high-pressure and high-temperature applications. They are used in various industries such as oil and gas, chemical processing, marine, and aerospace.
Monel K500 is a precipitation-hardening material that gets stronger with age and heat treatment. The Monel K500 flange is manufactured according to ASME B16.5.
Standard: ASME B16.5, B16.47, DIN, EN, JIS, BS
Types: SW, WN, LWN, SO, Threaded, Blind, Spectical blind, lap jiont, ring, disc
Size: 1/2"-60"
Class: 150#, 300#, 400#, 600#, 900#, 1500#, 2500#
Monel K500 flanges have excellent corrosion resistance. These flanges can withstand various corrosive environments such as seawater, acids, alkalis, and other chemicals. They are also resistant to pitting, crevice corrosion, and stress corrosion cracking.
Monel K500 flanges are used in various applications, such as piping systems, heat exchangers, pressure vessels, and pumps. They are also used in offshore platforms, valves, and marine equipment. The high strength and toughness of Monel K500 make it suitable for high-pressure applications.
