Copper-Nickel 90/10 Forgings are made up of 90% copper and around 10% nickel and contain trace levels of iron and manganese for added strength and corrosion resistance. This alloy boasts excellent corrosion resistance in seawater conditions coupled with good weldability and thermal conductivity. Its mechanical properties consist of tensile strength ranging from 310–480 MPa, yield strength ranging from 160–280 MPa, and elongation ranging from 30–50%. The alloy also exhibits a Brinell hardness of 90–180. These properties, coupled with stress corrosion resistance and biofouling resistance, make Copper-Nickel 90/10 a suitable material for high-level engineering and industrial use.

Copper Nickel 90/10 forgings may face challenges like higher cost, susceptibility to galvanic corrosion in specific environments, and limited availability in some sizes, requiring precise processing and material sourcing.
Common welding processes compatible with Copper Nickel 90/10 forgings include TIG (GTAW), MIG (GMAW), and SMAW. Proper filler materials, such as CuNi rods, ensure strong, corrosion-resistant welds for optimal performance.
Durability of Copper Nickel 90/10 forgings is ensured by factors like corrosion resistance, proper heat treatment, precise manufacturing, adequate welding techniques, and protection against galvanic corrosion in marine and industrial environments.
Copper-Nickel 90/10 Forgings are extensively utilized in industries demanding strength, corrosion resistance, and extended service life. In the marine industry, they are utilized in shipbuilding, seawater piping, pumps, valves, and heat exchangers because of their resistance to biofouling and seawater corrosion. Power generation plants and desalination plants use them in condenser tubes, fittings, and cooling systems where dependability in aggressive conditions is required. In chemical processing, they are used to give the endurance against corrosive liquids. Having superior weldability, high thermal conductivity, and resistance against stress corrosion cracking, Copper-Nickel 90/10 forgings are the first choice for demanding applications in marine, industrial, and power generation environments.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
