Alloy 400 data sheet | Amari Precision Tubes

Alloy 400 is a ductile, nickel-copper based alloy comprised essentially of two-thirds nickel and one third copper. Alloy 400 is known for resistance to a variety of corrosive conditions, including alkalies (or acid like substances), saltwater, hydrofluoric acid and sulphuric acid. Other advantages of using this alloy are its toughness and high strength over a broad temperature range; it can also be manipulated to become magnetic if desired.

This alloy is supplied:
Hot worked and annealed over 55mm diameter.
Cold worked and stress-relieved up to 55mm diameter.

Bars 3/4 inch to 4 inch diameter are supplied with 3.2 Certification.

Bars are UT tested to DEF STAN 02-729

All bars are of European Origin.
