COMMERCIALLY PURE NICKEL

Nickel 200

Nickel 200 is a commercially pure nickel material considered for its chemical-process corrosion behaviour, product purity and electrical or thermal conductivity. It differs from chromium-alloyed nickel materials and does not belong to the age-hardening superalloy family.

Distinguish purity from high strength

The highest mechanical strength is not always a process’s main material requirement. Product contact, metal contamination and conductivity may make commercially pure nickel relevant. Define the fluid composition and temperature; a high nickel content alone does not establish suitability for every acid or oxidising environment.

200 and 201 in elevated-temperature service

The choice between Nickel 200 and lower-carbon Nickel 201 becomes particularly important during prolonged elevated-temperature service. Carbon-related graphitisation means the grades should not be interchanged merely because their names are similar. Service temperature, exposure time and the requested product specification must be considered together.

Condition and dimensional information

The ductility of annealed material and the strength of cold-worked material support different fabrication requirements. ASTM B160 for rod and bar and ASTM B162 for flat products are example acceptance routes. Include the UNS designation, form, dimensions and condition alongside material numbers such as 2.4060 or 2.4066; similar identifiers do not establish full specification equivalence.

Typical application areas

Alkaline process equipment, chemical-contact surfaces and electrical components.
