Products Description
Monel K500 thermal spray wire is a commonly used coating material based on Monel alloy. Compared with Monel 400, alloy elements such as aluminum (Al) and titanium (Ti) are added to the chemical composition. The main components of this alloy are nickel and copper, with the nickel content exceeding 63% and the copper content ranging from 28% to 34%. A certain proportion of aluminum and titanium are also added to increase its strength and hardness.
The diameter of Monel K500 thermal spray wire is usually between 0.8mm and 3.2mm, and it has high tensile strength, which can reach more than 800MPa. It has a melting point of approximately 1300°C (2375°F) and remains stable in high temperature environments. In addition to excellent oxidation resistance and corrosion resistance, Monel K500 also has good weldability and processability.
Due to its excellent performance characteristics, Monel K500 thermal spray wire is widely used in marine engineering, chemical industry, aerospace, energy and other fields, such as seawater treatment equipment, ship parts, chemical valves, etc. Under the demand for coating protection that requires higher strength and hardness, Monel K500 has become one of the important choices in engineering design.

Feature
Higher strength and hardness: The addition of alloy elements such as aluminum and titanium gives Monel K500 higher strength and hardness than Monel 400. This makes it excellent in applications that require higher tensile strength, such as in high-load, high-stress working environments or where resistance to impact and wear is required.
Better corrosion resistance: Monel K500 also inherits the excellent corrosion resistance of Monel alloy, especially in seawater, salt water and chemical media, with outstanding performance. This makes it a common choice in the marine engineering and chemical industries for protecting equipment from the effects of corrosion.
Excellent processability and weldability: Monel K500 has good processability and weldability, which means that it can be processed and welded relatively easily to meet the coating needs of complex structures. This property makes it useful in applications requiring customized coating solutions.
