Some Key Features of Pure Nickel Wire N6 alloy include:
N6 contains a minimum of 99.6% nickel, ensuring superior corrosion resistance and mechanical properties compared to lower-purity nickel alloys.
N6 pure nickel wire offers outstanding resistance to corrosion in alkaline solutions, seawater, and many acids, particularly in neutral or mildly alkaline environments.
It is also resistant to stress corrosion cracking, making it ideal for use in harsh chemical and industrial environments.
N6 has moderate tensile strength and good ductility, allowing it to be easily drawn into wire, formed into complex shapes, or welded without significant strength loss.
Its moderate strength ensures it can handle applications where flexibility is essential without sacrificing durability.
N6 exhibits good thermal and electrical conductivity, though not as high as copper. This makes it suitable for electrical components, such as wires and contacts, in applications requiring high-purity materials and stable electrical performance.
N6 pure nickel is non-magnetic, making it ideal for applications where magnetic properties would interfere, such as in electronic devices, sensors, or specialized aerospace equipment.
N6 is highly formable and can be easily fabricated into wire, sheet, or tube. It can also be welded and brazed using conventional methods, making it suitable for a variety of manufacturing processes.
N6 maintains its mechanical properties and corrosion resistance at elevated temperatures (up to 600°C or 1112°F), making it suitable for high-temperature environments such as heat exchangers, furnace components, and reactors.
