Nickel 200 and nickel 201 are solid solution strengthened, commercially pure 99% nickel alloy. Nickel 201 was a modification of 200 to control carbon (0.02% max), this lower carbon content reduces hardness and makes the alloy 201 suitable for cold-formed items and use at higher temperatures. The elemental restrictions of both resulting in a single alloy with the desired characteristics of both alloys, nickel 200/201. Nickel 200 and nickel 201 are combined into one dual-certified chemistry.

Characteristics:

  •     High resistance to various reducing chemicals
  •     Widely used to handle caustic soda
  •     Resistance to numerous organic solutions and caustic lye
  •     Good resistance to neutral and alkaline salt solutions
  •     Resistance to hydrochloric acid and chlorination of hydro carbons as benzene, methane and ethane

Market applications:

  •    Petrochemical industry
  •    Salt production plants
  •    Floor and chloric processing
  •    Food production
  •    Marine and offshore engineering
