Monel K500 Round Bar Supplier UAE | UNS N05500 Stock – Properties, Specs, Stock & Applications
Monel® K-500 (UNS N05500) is a precipitation-hardenable nickel-copper alloy that delivers an exceptional combination of high strength, toughness, and superior corrosion resistance. This unique performance profile is achieved by adding aluminum and titanium to the nickel-copper base of Monel 400. Through a controlled thermal process known as age hardening, Monel K500 develops mechanical properties significantly greater than its counterpart, making it an essential material for your most demanding applications.
For critical operations in the UAE and GCC's challenging marine, offshore, and chemical processing environments, you require materials that guarantee reliability. Monel K-500 provides approximately three times the yield strength and double the tensile strength of Monel 400. Its key benefits include outstanding resistance to sour gas (H2S), seawater corrosion, and a low corrosion rate in high-velocity brackish water. Furthermore, it remains non-magnetic to temperatures as low as -200°F (-130°C), a vital property for specialized instrumentation and electronic components. This unique combination of strength and resilience makes UNS N05500 the definitive choice for high-performance components that cannot fail.
What is Monel K500?
At Nifty Alloys, we understand that selecting the right nickel alloy stockist UAE GCC partner is as critical as selecting the alloy itself. Monel K500 is fundamentally a nickel-copper alloy which combines the excellent corrosion resistance characteristic of Monel 400 with the added advantage of greater strength and hardness. This is achieved through the addition of aluminum and titanium and a proper heat treatment cycle known as precipitation hardening.
The alloy is non-magnetic and spark-resistant, characteristics that are maintained over a wide range of temperatures. For procurement professionals in the UAE managing offshore platforms or marine vessels, the "spark resistance" adds a layer of safety in volatile oil and gas zones.
