Nickel 200 Pure Nickel Flanges

Nickel 200 Pure Nickel Flanges Manufacturer & Supplier

Metinox Overseas is a pioneer manufacturer and distributor of Nickel 200 Flanges, pure nickel (99.6% minimum) specially designed to be used in the designing of the flanges that do not respond to any corrosion under the reducing environment along with caustic alkalies and the high temperature oxidizing condition. Our UNS N02200 Forged Flanges are produced of high grade commercially pure nickel of controlled chemical composition, which contains nickel and cobalt (99.0% minimum), carbon (0.15% maximum) and negligible alloying elements which provides minimum tensile strength of 380 Mpa, good ductile properties and excellent corrosion resistance both in caustic and reducing as well as neutral conditions. These Pure Nickel 200 Flanges are exceptionally high performance in sodium hydroxide (caustic soda), hydrofluoric acid, elemental fluorine, dry chlorine and hydrogen chloride gases, molten caustic salts and high temperature neutral or reducing atmospheres, where stainless steels fail.

The purity of nickel (at least 99.0% Ni + Co) gives outstanding resistance to corrosion in all concentrations and temperatures by caustic alkalies, thus Nickel 200 is the preferred material used in the process of producing and handling caustic soda. We make our Nickel 200 Weld Neck Flanges, Slip-On Flanges, Blind Flanges, and Socket Weld Flanges with compliance to ANSI/ASME B16.5 (1/2 to 24 NB) and ASME B16.47 Series A and B (26 to 60 NB) dimensional standards and they are available in pressure classes of 150 to 600 pounds. All the flanges are ordered in the annealed form (stress-relieved at 870-1090 o C) and are stringently quality tested in terms of dimensional, PMI, tensile, hardness, and ultrasonic testing as per ASTM B564 requirements.

Is Nickel 200 Good Quality for Caustic Service?

Yes, the industry-standard material of production and handling of caustic soda (sodium hydroxide) is called Nickel 200, which has superior anticorrosion properties in caustic alkalies of all concentrations and temperatures. The large percent of nickel (not less than 99.0% Ni+Co) is what provides high performance in reducing and neutral operating conditions where stainless steels and other common alloys are rapidly corroded.

The exceptional resistance to sodium hydroxide (NaOH) concentration range between dilute and molten (100%) as well as ambient to 370-C temperature range makes nickel 200 highly vital in chlor-alkali plants, caustic soda production facilities, and in caustic handling systems across the chemical processing industries. The material has low rates of corrosion (<0.1 mm/year) in hot concentrated caustic solutions in which stainless steels would quickly dissolve.

It is also highly resistant to: hydrofluoric acid (all concentrations), elemental fluorine and fluorine compounds, dry chlorine and hydrogen chloride gases (of importance in chlor-alkali industry), reducing acids devoid of oxidizing contaminants, high temperature water and steam (non-oxidizing), molten caustic salts, and neutral or reducing atmospheres at high temperature. Nickel 200 is especially praised to be resistant to stress corrosion cracking in hot caustic solutions, which is a failure mode that occurs with austenitic stainless steels.

The good ductility and formability of Nickel 200 under the annealed state make it easy to obtain complex equipment. Most of the traditional methods of joining can be used with the material which can be hot or cold worked, welded, brazed and joined. Although there are some drawbacks to Nickel 200: not resistant to oxidizing acids (nitric acid, hot sulfuric acid), oxidizing salts, damp halogen gases (wet chlorine rapidly attacks), or ammonia environments above 50o C.

The most important factor that Nickel 200 must take into account is the maximum maximum temperature of service up to 315 C (600 F). At temperatures above 315 o C, carbon in the alloy may be precipitated as graphite at grain boundaries, leading to severe embrittlement which is referred to as graphitization. Nickel 201 (low-carbon, with 0.02 percent maximum carbon) is required to eliminate this phenomenon at service above 315 o C.

Nickel 200 was used in: chlor-alkali plant caustic evaporators and concentrators, caustic soda storage and handling systems, hydrofluoric acid production and handling, fluorine and fluorine compound processing, chemical processing equipment handling caustic or reducing environment, food processing equipment (pure nickel approved to food contact), high temperature furnace components in reducing atmosphere. The material is the best performance in caustic and reducing conditions where its special characteristics would warrant high prices (usually 8-15 times higher than 316L stainless steel).

Heat Treatment & Testing Requirements

Heat Treatment Process (Mandatory):

Annealing (Stress Relief):

  • Temperature: 870-1090-C (1600-2000-F)

  • Purpose: Stress relief, grain size control, optimize ductility

Note: Nickel 200 supplied in annealed condition. No solution annealing required as material is single-phase FCC (face-centered cubic).

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

0.15% max carbon Nickel 200; 0.02% max carbon Nickel 201 (low-carbon). Both are 99.0% min Ni+Co. Nickel 200 appropriate to 315degC (600degF); beyond 315degC Nickel 201 should be utilized to inhibit graphitization embrittlement. Below 315deg C, either grade acceptable; Nickel 200 less costly and more easily accessible.

Carbon in Nickel 200 forms at grain boundaries at temperatures going above 315degC (600degF) forming a vicious circle of embrittlement and intergranular fissures. Such graphitization renders the material brittle and liable to failure. Nickel 201 (max carbon 0.02% max) inhibits this effect, which is serviceable to 650degC.

Yes, Nickel 200 offers good service under sodium hydroxide (NaOH) at all dilute levels (0.01M) up to 100 percent molten caustic, and under ambient temperature to 370degC. The rate of corrosion is normally less than 0.1 mm/year in hot concentrated caustic. Chlor-alkali plant industry standard.

No. Nickel 200 NOT oxidizing acid (nitric acid, hot sulfuric acid with oxidizing salts) resistant. Only used in the reduction of acids (hydrofluoric acid) or non-oxidizing. Pure nickel corrodes very fast in oxidizing environments.

filler It is standard matching filler of AWS A5.14 ERNi-1 (commercially pure nickel). GTAW (TIG) favored high quality welds. GMAW (MIG) acceptable. No preheat required. Stress relief Welders recommend post-weld at 870-1090degC to ensure corrosion resistance. Welding Do not oxidize the weld atmospheres.

No, Nickel 200 NOT to be used above 50 deg C or anhydrous ammonia. Ammonia environment practices stress corrosion cracking in nickel. In the case of ammonia service, copper alloys (70-30 Cu-Ni) or carbon steel should be used.

Nickel 200 is a weakly magnetic material at room temperature, but it is non-magnetic at a temperature higher than its Curie temperature (358 deg C/676 deg F). Ferromagnetic but low-coercivity pure nickel. Not generally a consideration of process equipment.

Monel 400 (UNS N04400, 67Ni-30Cu) is a copper-added material which offers superior resistance to hydrofluoric acid, seawater, and sulfuric acid. Nickel 200 of high grade in the caustic service and pure reducing conditions. Monel 400 more general; Nickel 200 best where it is to be used with caustic.

Yes Nickel 200 is a good cold forming annealed alloy. May be cold drawn, spun, stamped or formed. Work becomes moderately hard during cold working. In between cold working, intermediate anneals at 870-1090degC are used to regain the ductility.

low supply owing to expensive nature and specialisation. Made-to-order: 12-16 weeks with the virgin nickel cathode procurement, melting and refining to 99.0 percent min purity, forging, 870 -1090degC annealing, mechanical testing, chemical analysis verification, and documentation. The Lead times depend on the LME nickel market conditions and availability of nickel cathodes in the world.
