### **Product Introduction: Alloy 450 & Monel 450 Sheet** #### **Overview** This document provides a detailed introduction to two distinct high-performance materials available in sheet form: **Alloy 450** and **Monel 450**. It is crucial to understand that these are different alloys designed for specific applications. Our precision-manufactured sheets guarantee consistent quality, excellent surface finish, and compliance with international standards for your critical projects. --- ### **Part 1: Alloy 450 (UNS N06450) Sheet** Alloy 450 is a **nickel-chromium-iron** alloy known for its excellent oxidation resistance and high strength at elevated temperatures. It is a versatile engineering material for use in both corrosive and high-temperature environments. #### **Key Features & Advantages** * **Excellent Oxidation Resistance:** Up to 1177°C (2150°F). * **High Strength:** Maintains good mechanical properties at high temperatures. * **Good Corrosion Resistance:** Resists a variety of corrosive media. * **Stability:** Resists sigma phase formation after long-term exposure, minimizing embrittlement. #### **Chemical Composition (Typical % Weight)** | Element | Content (%) | | :--- | :--- | | **Nickel (Ni)** | 73.0 min | | **Chromium (Cr)** | 14.0 - 18.0 | | **Iron (Fe)** | 5.0 - 9.0 | | **Copper (Cu)** | 0.5 max | | **Manganese (Mn)** | 1.0 max | | **Silicon (Si)** | 0.5 max | | **Carbon (C)** | 0.15 max | | **Sulfur (S)** | 0.015 max | #### **Physical & Mechanical Properties (Sheet - Annealed)** | Property | Value | | :--- | :--- | | **Density** | 8.22 g/cm³ (0.297 lb/in³) | | **Melting Point** | ~1371°C (~2500°F) | | **Tensile Strength** | 655 MPa (95 ksi) min | | **Yield Strength (0.2% Offset)** | 275 MPa (40 ksi) min | | **Elongation** | 30 % min | #### **International Standards (Alloy 450)** * **ASTM:** ASTM B **168** (Plate, Sheet, Strip) * **UNS:** **N06450** * **EN:** **NW 8345** (NiCr15Fe) * **Common Trade Name:** Often referred to simply as **Alloy 450**. #### **Applications (Alloy 450 Sheet)** * Heat treatment fixtures and baskets * Radiant tubes * Industrial furnace components * Chemical processing equipment --- ### **Part 2: Monel 450 (UNS N05500) Sheet** Monel 450 is a **precipitation-hardenable nickel-copper** alloy. It combines the excellent corrosion resistance of Monel 400 with the added capability of being strengthened by heat treatment to achieve higher strength and hardness. #### **Key Features & Advantages** * **High Strength & Hardness:** Can be heat treated to significantly higher levels than Monel 400. * **Excellent Corrosion Resistance:** Inherits the superb resistance to seawater, acids, and alkalis from the Monel family. * **Good Fabricability:** Can be welded and formed in the annealed condition before age-hardening. #### **Chemical Composition (Typical % Weight)** | Element | Content (%) | | :--- | :--- | | **Nickel (Ni)** | 63.0 min | | **Copper (Cu)** | 27.0 - 33.0 | | **Aluminum (Al)** | 2.30 - 3.15 | | **Titanium (Ti)** | 0.35 - 0.85 | | **Iron (Fe)** | 2.0 max | | **Manganese (Mn)** | 1.5 max | | **Carbon (C)** | 0.25 max | | **Silicon (Si)** | 0.5 max | #### **Physical & Mechanical Properties (Sheet)** *Properties vary significantly with heat treatment.* | Property | Annealed Condition | Aged Condition (Typical) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Density** | 8.44 g/cm³ (0.305 lb/in³) | - | | **Melting Point** | ~1316°C (~2400°F) | - | | **Tensile Strength** | 620-827 MPa (90-120 ksi) | 965-1207 MPa (140-175 ksi) | | **Yield Strength (0.2% Offset)** | 345-690 MPa (50-100 ksi) | 655-1035 MPa (95-150 ksi) | | **Elongation** | 20-35 % | 15-25 % | | **Hardness (Rockwell)** | B85 - C25 | C25 - C38 | #### **International Standards (Monel 450)** * **ASTM:** ASTM B **865** (Bar, Forgings) / Sheet equivalents are often supplied to these bar specs. * **UNS:** **N05500** * **Common Trade Name:** **Monel® K-500** or **Monel 450**. (K-500 is the widely used trade name). #### **Applications (Monel 450 Sheet)** * **Marine & Offshore:** Pump shafts, propeller shafts, fasteners, valve components for high-strength requirements. * **Oil & Gas:** Doctor blades, scrapers, downhole instrumentation housings. * **Chemical Processing:** Impellers, springs, valve trim in highly corrosive services. * **Aerospace:** High-strength, non-magnetic components. --- ### **Summary & Selection Guide** | Feature | Alloy 450 (UNS N06450) | Monel 450 (UNS N05500) | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | **Base System** | Nickel-Chromium-Iron | Nickel-Copper (with Al, Ti) | | **Key Property** | High-Temperature Oxidation Resistance | High Strength + Corrosion Resistance | | **Strengthening** | Solid Solution | Precipitation Hardenable | | **Primary Use** | High-Temperature Furnace Parts | High-Strength Marine & Chemical Parts | **Why Choose Our Sheets?** We provide both Alloy 450 and Monel 450 sheets with certified mill test reports, precise dimensional tolerances, and a variety of tempers (annealed, aged, etc.) to meet your design specifications.
