ASTM B111/ ASME SB111 C70600 Copper Nickel Tubes Cu-Ni 90/10 Seamless Tube
Description
Metals such as copper-nickel alloys are named for their chemical composition. As the name suggests, the majority of its alloy consists of copper and a relatively small amount of nickel. While there are different grades on the market, one of the most common is a 90/10 grade copper-nickel tube, which, by the way, has an alloy that is 90% copper. In addition to the smaller 10% nickel in the alloy, the material will also contain trace amounts of elements such as manganese and iron. Although their composition contains trace amounts of these elements, the importance of adding them to cupramine-nickel 90/10 tubes can improve their performance in corrosive media.
Thus, despite the subtle addition of these two elements to the alloy, their action is related to the improvement in the overall strength and corrosion resistance of the copper-nickel 90/10 tubes because of the individual metals' knack for malleability and malleability. In alloy form, the material exhibits very high ductility, allowing manufacturers to easily produce copper-nickel 90/10 welded tubes. While ductility is not the only factor to consider when using a pipe, its function, corrosion resistance and mechanical properties are also taken into account. C70600 copper-nickel is an alloy of copper further classified as copper-nickel (white copper-nickel). CW352H is the EN digital name for the material. C70600 is the UNS number. In addition, the EN chemical name is CuNi10Fe1Mn. The British Standard (BS) is CN102. The industry name is white copper 90/10.
