Monel K500 Plate vs Monel 400 Plate

Monel K500 Plate Supplier in Pune helps buyers choose between K500 and Monel 400.

Monel K500 Plate (N05500)

• Aluminium 2.30–3.15 and titanium 0.35–0.85 added
• Age hardens to about three times the yield of Monel 400
• Tensile roughly double that of Monel 400
• Seawater resistance close to Monel 400
• Aged plate has more stress cracking tendency

VS

Monel 400 Plate (N04400)

• No aluminium or titanium; no age hardening
• Nickel 63.0 min, copper 28.0–34.0
• Plate, sheet and strip covered by ASTM B127
• Lower strength than aged K500
• Slightly better stress cracking margin in some service

▲︎

Pick K500 for Strength

Choose it when the part must carry load in seawater or chemical service.

◈︎

State the Condition

Say annealed or aged in the enquiry, since hardness and strength differ widely.

⚙︎

Check the Standard Cited

A B127 call-out points to Monel 400, so confirm the grade before you order.

Alloy Monel K500 Coil Age Hardening Guide

Monel K500 Plate Supplier in Hyderabad quotes annealed or age-hardened plate on request.

1800°F anneal, hot-finished (982 °C)

1900°F anneal, cold-worked (1038 °C)

1100–1125°F age, 16 hours (593–607 °C)

900°F furnace-cool target (482 °C)

Solution Anneal

01

Heat hot-finished product to 1800 °F and cold-worked product to 1900 °F, keeping the soak under 30 minutes.

Long soaks coarsen the grain.

Water Quench

02

Quench at once. A slow quench lets part of the hardening phase form early and weakens later aging.

About 2% alcohol in the water eases pickling.

Age Hardening

03

Hold soft material for 16 hours, then furnace cool at 15 to 25 °F per hour down to 900 °F.

Below 900 °F the cooling rate is not critical.

Cold-Worked Stock

04

Heavily cold-worked strip ages at 980 to 1000 °F for 6 hours or longer, cooled slowly to 900 °F.

Annealing removes any gain from cold work.

Overaging

05

Long exposure between 1100 and 1400 °F overages the plate, and a fresh anneal plus re-age is the only cure.

Plan every heat cycle before cutting.

Which Condition to Buy

06

Order annealed if you will form or weld first, and aged if the part goes into service as supplied.

Name the condition and any hardness cap.

ASTM B127 Alloy K500 Strip Seawater and Sour Service Data

Monel K500 Plate Supplier in Secunderabad serves marine and offshore fabrication shops.

Seawater Sour Gas Cautions

SeaVery low rateIn fast-flowing seawater

Flowing and Still Seawater

High strength with a very low corrosion rate in fast seawater makes K500 a known pick for pump shafts in marine service.

• GoodHigh-velocity seawater
• WatchStagnant or slow seawater, where fouling is followed by pitting
• NotePitting slows after a quick initial attack

H₂SNo crackingIn the 6-day U-bend test

Sour Gas Exposure

Aged sheet U-bends showed no cracking after 6 days in saturated hydrogen sulfide solution, across acidic and basic pH.

• Test3500 ppm H₂S, pH 1.0 to 11.0
• Hardness28 to 40 HRC on the tested specimens
• ListingNACE MR0175 / ISO 15156
• ActionConfirm edition and hardness cap for your project

SCCAged plateHigher tendency than Monel 400

Where to Be Careful

Corrosion resistance matches Monel 400 apart from one point: aged K500 can crack under stress in some environments.

• RiskStress corrosion cracking in some media when aged
• ChooseAnnealed or aged to suit the service
• VerifyHardness on the MTC before sour service

 

Four Details to Put in a Marine or Sour-Service Enquiry

Delivery condition

Annealed or age-hardened, since the two behave differently in cracking-prone service.

Hardness limit

Quote any cap your project sets, so the MTC can report against it.

Seawater flow

Fast flow suits K500 well, while dead zones invite fouling and pitting.

Destination port

Name the port, such as Durban, Mombasa or Jebel Ali, for a dated shipping quote.

⚙︎

Rough Machine Soft

Heavy cuts go best on annealed or hot-worked and quenched stock.

◈︎

Finish After Aging

Aged plate still takes close tolerances and fine finishes on the final pass.

▲︎

Leave Stock for Shrink

Machine slightly oversize, because aging pulls the part in a little.
