This material is noted for its toughness over a considerable range of temperatures, and has excellent resistance to many corrosive environments. Monel 400 can be hardened only by cold-working. It is useful at temperatures up to 1050° F, and has very good mechanical properties at temperatures below zero. Melting point is 2370-2460⁰ F.
Resists corrosion and oxidation to 2150⁰ F. Provides springs with high resistance to corrosion and heat up to 750⁰ F. Tough and ductile down to -310⁰ F is nonmagnetic, easily fabricated and welded. Used for structural parts, cathode ray tube spiders, thyratron grids, sheathing, tube supports, spark plug electrodes.
Age hardenable, nonmagnetic, corrosion and oxidation resistant (high creep-rupture strength to 1300⁰ F). Heavy cold working develops tensile strength of 290,000 psi. Stays tough and ductile to -423⁰ F. Resists chloride-ion stress-corrosion cracking. For springs operating to 1200⁰ F and tube structural parts.
