Special nickel alloy Monel K500 UNS N05500 2.4375 hex bolt DIN931 ISO4014
Monel nickel copper k500 hex bolts are often used for standard and advanced applications where a combination of strength and corrosion resistance is a necessity. Monel UNS N05500¡¯s advanced quality corrosion resistance and usability in extreme conditions makes it the perfect choice for a wide range of industrial applications. Some of which, include:
Chemical processing equipment
Marine applications
Petroleum tills & gasoline tanks
Heat exchangers
Valves & pumps
Propeller shafts
Process vessels
And more
Monel K500 bolts are virtually non-magnetic and spark resistant, even at temperatures down to -200¡ãF. Though in some applications, Monel K500 can develop a magnetic layer during processing when aluminum and copper are selectively oxidized during heating, leaving a magnetic nickel-rich film on the outside. This can be corrected by pickling or bright dipping in acid, which will remove any magnetic film and restore it to a non-magnetic condition. In addition, Monel K500 bolts also offer outstanding low temperature properties. When utilized at subzero temperatures, these bolts actually increase their tensile and yield strengths, while ductility and toughness are virtually unchanged. Hence, Monel K500 bolts are utilized in many cryogenic applications.
