Monel

Stellanox Steel is a leading supplier of Monel alloys, known for their exceptional resistance to seawater, acids, and alkaline media. With high strength and outstanding durability, Monel products are ideal for marine engineering, chemical processing, oil and gas, and aerospace applications.

We offer Monel in various grades such as Monel 400 and Monel K500, available in sheets, plates, pipes, tubes, rods, bars, fittings, and fasteners—manufactured to international standards and certified for critical applications.

What are Monel Alloys?

Monel is a nickel-copper-based alloy that delivers excellent performance in saltwater environments, hydrofluoric acid, alkalis, and non-oxidizing acids. With superior toughness, thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance, Monel is preferred in industries where stainless steel and other nickel alloys fail.

Frequently Asked Questions

Explore our FAQs for insights on materials, customization, and delivery.
What’s the difference between Monel 400 and K500?
Monel K500 is a strengthened version of Monel 400, offering higher tensile strength and hardness due to precipitation hardening.
Can Monel be used in seawater?
Yes. Monel is specifically designed for marine environments and exhibits excellent resistance to saltwater corrosion.
Is Monel magnetic?
Monel 400 is non-magnetic in the annealed condition, making it suitable for sensitive electronic and marine applications.
How does Monel compare to stainless steel in acid resistance?
Monel offers far better resistance to strong acids, especially hydrofluoric acid, where stainless steel typically fails.
