Nickel 200 (UNS N02200) Plates, manufactured in accordance with ASTM B162, are commercially pure wrought nickel plates containing a minimum of 99.2% nickel. This material is highly regarded across the global chemical processing industry for its exceptional resistance to a wide range of corrosive media. Unlike many alloys, Nickel 200 provides unparalleled protection against caustic alkalis (such as sodium hydroxide) at various concentrations and temperatures. Its metallurgical stability ensures that it maintains excellent mechanical properties across a broad temperature spectrum, from cryogenic levels up to 315°C (600°F).

The technical utility of ASTM B162 Nickel 200 extends beyond its corrosion resistance; it also boasts high thermal and electrical conductivity, significantly surpassing many stainless steels and nickel-based alloys. This makes it an ideal choice for heat exchangers and electronic components. Furthermore, its low gas content and low vapor pressure are essential for vacuum applications. Nickel 200 is easily hot or cold formed and can be welded using standard processes, making it a highly versatile material for chemical storage tanks, food processing equipment, aerospace components, and synthetic fiber production. While it is ferromagnetic at room temperature, its magnetic properties remain stable, providing additional functionality in specialized electrical and electromagnetic shielding applications.



Nickel 200 B162 Plate Features

  • » Ultra-High Chemical Purity: Composed of minimum 99.2% Nickel, offering the characteristic properties of commercially pure wrought metal for highly sensitive applications.
  • » Unmatched Alkali Resistance: Provides superior protection against caustic alkalis, particularly sodium hydroxide (caustic soda), even in molten states and high concentrations.
  • » Broad Temperature Stability: Maintains excellent mechanical properties from cryogenic temperatures up to a service limit of 315°C (600°F).
  • » Superior Conductivity: Features high thermal and electrical conductivity, making it far more efficient for heat transfer and electrical applications than most corrosion-resistant alloys.
  • » Low Vapor Pressure: Exceptional performance in high-vacuum environments due to its low gas content and minimal evaporation rates at elevated temperatures.
  • » Excellent Ductility and Formability: Can be easily cold-worked and hot-formed, allowing for the fabrication of complex shapes like vessel heads and intricate heat exchanger components.
  • » Corrosion Resistance in Neutral Media: Highly resistant to neutral and alkaline salt solutions, as well as dry fluorine and certain non-oxidizing acids.
  • » Magnetic Properties: Exhibits strong ferromagnetic properties at room temperature, which is advantageous for specific electronic and electromagnetic shielding uses.
