Monel 400 pipe fittings pipe bend resistant to sea water and steam at high temperatures
ALLOY400 is a single-phase solid-solution Ni-Cu alloy with good mechanical properties from sub-zero temperatures up to about 550 ¡ãC (1020 ¡ãF) and is approved for pressure vessels with wall temperatures from -10 to 425 ¡ãC (14 to 800 ¡ãF) according to VdTUV-Wbl. 263 and up to 900 ¡ãF (480 ¡ãC) according to ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code.
The product promotes attractive performance characteristics, including good weldability and high strength and retains its properties at sub-zero temperatures. Bends for functional applications, such as piping joints or racks for tubes, can be made from flat stock or with materials such as rebar or woodchip. The material used for pipe bends does not have a significant influence on ductility or strength. The diameter of the pipe can be affected by the diameter of the fitting being installed and dimensionally correct bends can be used to pass relatively small diameter pipe elements.
