Nickel 200 Wire Mesh and Perforated Metal

Nickel 200 Alloy

Marco Specialty Steel is a leading supplier of wire mesh and perforated metal. Please call us to see specific metal types for all our products.

Nickel 200 woven wire mesh made from Nickel 200 is particularly useful in filtration systems that must endure harsh chemical environments without degrading. This makes it ideal for use in chemical processing plants and laboratories.

Nickel 200 perforated metal, on the other hand, offers a combination of strength and ventilation, making it suitable for applications such as heat exchangers and acoustic panels, where both airflow and durability are necessary. The availability of Nickel 200 in these forms allows for tailored solutions across industries that require corrosion resistance and mechanical reliability.

Industries such as chemical processing, electronics, and aerospace frequently utilize Nickel 200 due to its reliability and resilience. In chemical processing, it is used for handling caustic solutions and other corrosive chemicals, often in the production of sodium hydroxide and synthetic fibers. Its non-magnetic nature, combined with excellent thermal and electrical conductivity, makes it valuable in electronic applications, including in components like anodes and cathodes. Moreover, Nickel 200’s ability to withstand high temperatures without losing strength is beneficial in the aerospace industry, where it is utilized in engine components and other critical parts.

Nickel Alloy 200

Nickel 200 Principal Design Features: Commercially pure (99%) wrought nickel, basically unalloyed but containing minor amounts of other elements usually totaling less than 1%.

Nickel 200 Applications: Electronic parts, resistance to corrosion applications such as handling alkaline solutions and foods.

Nickel 200 Machinability: Commercially pure nickel is soft and “gummy” to machine. However, it can be machined with standard tooling. High-speed-steel tools work better than carbide tooling and it is important to maintain a high positive rake angle on cutting tools.

Nickel 200 Welding: All of the conventional welding and joining methods work with nickel. In particular the shielded metal-arc, gas tungsten-arc and gas metal-arc welding methods are recommended. Use nickel filler wire or electrodes.

Nickel 200 Forming: Nickel is readily formed by all of the conventional means. It behaves in a similar fashion to plain carbon steel, except that more power is required to form nickel.
