At ViramiSteel Hub, within the energetic heart of Mumbai’s industrial district, we understand every bar sent out is a lifeline for critical infrastructure more than metal. Monel 400 and Monel 500 (K-500) bars thrive inside environments engineered for daily challenges like corrosion, pressure, and wear.
Monel 400 (UNS N04400)
This nickel-copper alloy resists against corrosion in such a rock-solid way and lasts with such great toughness. It deals with seawater and acids with alkalis with all extreme temperatures in grace. It remains quite flexible as well as durable even at sub-zero levels.
Chemical composition of monel 400| Element | Content (%) |
|---|---|
| Nickel, Ni | 57 |
| Molybdenum, Mo | 15-17 |
| Chromium, Cr | 14.5-16.5 |
| Iron, Fe | 4-7 |
| Tungsten, W | 3-4.50 |
| Cobalt, Co | 2.50 |
| Manganese, Mn | 1 |
| Vanadium, V | 0.35 |
| Silicon, Si | 0.080 |
| Phosphorous, P | 0.025 |
| Carbon, C | 0.010 |
| Sulfur, S | 0.010 |
Monel 500 (K-500, UNS N05500)
This age-hardenable version stems from Monel 400’s heritage, and it includes aluminum and titanium to increase strength. It opposes corrosion while growing harder and recoiling strongly.
Chemical composition of monel 500| Nickel (plus Cobalt) | 63% min |
| Carbon | 0.25% max |
| Manganese | 1.5% max |
| Iron | 2% max |
| Sulfur | 0.01% max |
| Silicon | 0.5% max |
| Copper | 7–33% |
| Aluminum | 2.30–3.15% |
| Titanium | 0.35–0.85% |
| Alloy | Corrosion Resistance | Strength & Hardness | Special Edge |
|---|---|---|---|
| Monel 400 |
Excellent across marine and chemical settings |
Moderate; very ductile |
Reliable, weldable, and corrosion-proven |
| Monel 500 | Almost equal to 400 |
Significantly higher via aging |
Ideal when strength and wear resistance matter more |
