32 - 38 HRC Monel K500 Material Abrasion Resistant / Wear Resistant

Monel K500 Alloy combines nickel and copper with aluminum and titanium to create a material with exceptional strength and corrosion resistance. Particularly effective in marine and chemical environments, it is widely used in industries requiring high durability and resistance to wear and corrosion.

• Nickel (Ni): 63-70% - Provides the base metal with high corrosion resistance and strength
• Copper (Cu): 28-34% - Adds to the alloy's strength and resistance to corrosion
• Aluminum (Al): 2.3-3.15% - Contributes to age hardening, improving strength
• Titanium (Ti): 0.35-0.85% - Assists in age hardening and stabilizes the alloy
• Iron (Fe): ≤2% - Minor component for adjusting mechanical properties
• Manganese (Mn): ≤1% - Aids in alloying and improves properties
• Carbon (C): ≤0.3% - Limits the formation of carbides that can affect properties

• Hardness: Typically 32-38 HRC (Rockwell Hardness) - Enhanced by age hardening
• Tensile Strength: Approximately 1,380 MPa - Provides high strength under mechanical stress
• Yield Strength: Approximately 1,100 MPa - Ensures resistance to deformation under load
• Density: 8.83 g/cm³ - Offers a robust material density
• Elongation: Approximately 15% - Allows for some ductility in the material

• Corrosion Resistance: Excellent resistance to seawater, acids, and alkaline solutions
• Wear Resistance: Good resistance to wear and abrasion for high-wear applications
• Oxidation Resistance: Performs well in oxidizing environments up to moderate temperatures
