Nickel alloy 400 is a ductile nickel-copper alloy that exhibits excellent corrosion resistance under various conditions. The alloy is frequently used in mildly oxidizing environments to moderately reducing conditions.
Nickel alloy 405 is a nickel-copper alloy with high toughness and strength. It also has excellent corrosion resistance in a range of media that include alkalis, sulfuric acid, hydrofluoric acid and seawater.
Magnesium is a strong, silvery-white, light-weight metal that tarnishes slightly when exposed to air. Magnesium QE22A-T6 alloy is a casting alloy having excellent tensile, fatigue and creep properties at elevated and room temperatures. It is weldable and pressure tight.
Magnesium is the fourth most common element in the Earth as a whole, and makes up 13% of the Earth’s mass. It is the third most commonly used structural metal, after iron and aluminium.
Magnesium is the eighth most abundant element in the earths crust. Magnesium alloys are easy to machine and process with conventional methods. Magnesium AZ92A-T7 alloy has good yield strength and high tensile strength.
Aluminium / aluminum 3000 series alloys provide a wide range of mechanical properties coupled with excellent corrosion resistance, weldability and formability.
Apart from iron, aluminium / aluminum is currently the next most widely used metal in the world. This is due to the fact that aluminium / aluminum has a unique combination of attractive properties.
Copper is a durable ductile reddish brown metal that has been used by man for centuries. Its remarkable properties of thermal and electrical conductivity and corrosion resistance have made this metal an essential material in everyday life.
Copper, a reddish brown metal, is found in many products that surround us. Wires, door knobs, taps, decorative items, coins, jewelry etc contain copper or its alloys.
