ASTM B564 Monel 400 Nickel Alloy Forged Ring UNS N04400 Corrosion Resistant Forging Ring
ASTM B564 Monel 400 Forged Ring – UNS N04400 Nickel Alloy
Monel 400 (UNS N04400) is a nickel-copper alloy renowned for its exceptional resistance to seawater, hydrofluoric acid, sulfuric acid, and alkaline environments. Our ASTM B564 Monel 400 forged rings are manufactured through a controlled open-die forging process, ensuring superior grain structure and mechanical integrity compared to cast alternatives.
Key Features
- Superior Corrosion Resistance: Excellent performance in seawater, brackish water, and aggressive chemical environments including sulfuric and hydrofluoric acid solutions
- High Strength: Minimum tensile strength of 517 MPa and yield strength of 195 MPa in annealed condition
- Wide Temperature Range: Retains mechanical properties from sub-zero to 480°C (900°F)
- Stress Corrosion Cracking Resistant: Immune to chloride-ion stress corrosion cracking, ideal for marine applications
- Full Traceability: Each ring comes with material test certificates (MTC) per EN 10204 3.1, including chemical composition and mechanical test results
