Advantages
1. Low-nickel copper-nickel alloy comes with a small density, light weight and attractive appearance.
2. It provides excellent resistance to corrosion and color deterioration. Specifically, the copper alloy will not discolor in a 24-hour man-made perspiration test, and retain its color remains unchanged after dipping in a detergent solution for 24 hours.
3. High abrasion resistance greatly extends its service life
4. The CuNi alloy has outstanding high and low temperature machinability. The maximum working modulus is up to 70%.
Applications
Our copper nickel alloys with low nickel content and outstanding deformation characteristics are ideal for the manufacturing of glasses, fittings, musical instruments, zippers, cupronickel jewelry, precision instruments, medical and sanitary engineering parts, elastic elements, utensils and daily necessities.
