Nickel is a pure metal that is extracted in its natural state and is not an alloy. Nickel is a silvery-white metal in its natural state. Nickel is a ductile and hard metal. Nickel, like many other metals, is resistant to corrosion at high temperatures, which is why it is mixed with other metals to create highly effective alloys. Nickel is used to making many alloys due to its many positive characteristics. Nickel plays an important role in the alloy. The metal that is obtained naturally is also long-lasting. Nickel has a carbon content of approximately 0.02 percent. Nickels come in a variety of shapes and sizes, including bars, wires, sheets, plates, coils, and more. Nickel is also divided into two grades: Nickel 200 and Nickel 201. Nickel is found in Stainless Steel, Hastelloy, Corten Steel, Cupro-Nickel, and other alloys.
1. Highly resistant to various reducing chemicals
2. Excellent resistance to caustic alkalies
3. Widely used to handle caustic soda
4. Good thermal, electrical, and magnetostrictive properties
5. Resistance to neutral and alkaline salt solutions
6. Excellent resistance to dry fluorine
7. High electrical conductivity
8. Excellent corrosion resistance to distilled and natural waters
9. Offers some resistance to hydrochloric and sulfuric acids at modest temperatures and
concentrations
The chemical property of Nickel Fasteners 200 is as carbon in 200 is 0.15% which is 0.02% in 201. For fabricating the grade 200 heat treatment and cold working can be used. The temperature for heat treatment has to be between 1200°F and 2250°F. For annealing, the suitable temperature is 1300°F to 1600°F. Well while heat treating and cold treating the Nickel 200 it should be done carefully because it has an impact on the properties of the alloy. The Tensile Strength of Nickel 200 products is 60-85 ksi, and yielding strength is 15-45 ksi, with elongation of 55-35%. The hardness is attained at 45-80% respectively. All these properties are for the round bars.
