Nickel and its alloys are widely recognized for their exceptional resistance to corrosion, oxidation, and high-temperature environments. Nickel rods, tubes, and plates are essential materials used across industries such as chemical processing, marine engineering, aerospace, and energy generation.
Nickel Rods
Nickel rods are solid cylindrical bars designed for applications requiring superior strength and corrosion resistance. These rods offer excellent performance in both high-temperature and high-pressure conditions, making them suitable for:
- Chemical and petrochemical processing plants
- Aerospace and marine structural components
- Fasteners, valves, and fittings
- Electrical and electronic components
Nickel rods are available in pure nickel (Nickel 200, 201) and nickel-based alloys (Nickel 400, 600, 625, 800) with customized tempers and finishes.
Nickel Tubes
Nickel tubes are hollow cylindrical products offering high strength, excellent corrosion resistance, and superior heat transfer capabilities. They are ideal for heat exchangers, condensers, and fluid handling systems in corrosive environments. Common applications include:
- Heat exchangers and condensers
- Power generation and nuclear industries
- Desalination plants and marine equipment
- Instrumentation and chemical processing systems
Tubes are available in seamless and welded types, conforming to ASTM standards such as B163, B165, B725, and B730. They offer excellent dimensional accuracy and long service life even under harsh operating conditions.
Nickel Plates
Nickel plates are flat, thick sheets known for their outstanding mechanical properties and resistance to oxidation and scaling. These plates perform well under elevated temperatures and are used extensively in:
- Chemical and food processing equipment
- Marine and offshore structures
- Aerospace and defense applications
- Battery and electrical components
Available in cold-rolled or hot-rolled finishes, nickel plates can be supplied in various thicknesses and tempers to meet customer requirements.
