Monel K-500 (UNS N05500, 2.4375) is an age-hardenable nickel-copper bolting grade with a 300°C service limit, supplied to ASTM B865 and QQ-N-286 at 1100 MPa tensile and 790 MPa yield in the age-hardened condition. Ni₃(Al,Ti) gamma-prime precipitation gives it the corrosion resistance of Monel 400 at roughly three times the yield strength, which makes monel k500 bolts and monel k500 fasteners the reference choice for seawater and chloride service.

FAQ

Monel K-500 questions we get most

The nickel-copper matrix of monel k500 fasteners forms a stable protective film in chloride environments and, unlike stainless steels, is not susceptible to chloride stress corrosion cracking. UNS N05500 bolts also resist cavitation and high-velocity erosion far better than 316 or duplex stainless.
