Copper Nickel Round Bars – Characteristics and Applications

Copper nickel round bar is a kind of round bar made of nickel and copper alloy and has applications in various industries due to its alloy characteristics. Copper nickel bars are available in a variety of grades.

Copper-nickel 90/10 Round Bar

Copper is the primary constituent of this grade, which has a chemical makeup of up to 90 percent copper. Due to high thermal conductivity, it finds applications areas less sensitive to corrosion. Therefore, one can use them in applications involving high temperature and pressure.

Copper-nickel 70/30 Round Bar

Nickel is the most crucial element for this sort of copper-nickel round bar.

A maximum of 30% of its chemical makeup is nickel, unlike 10% in the 90/10 grade, which is a significant difference.

Heavily corrosive situations, where the pressure and temperature are both relatively low, are the primary applications for this material.

What are the advantages of using a copper-nickel round bar?

These bars offer the following advantages –

  • High ductility and toughness 
  • Outstanding erosion and corrosion protection when exposed to saltwater.
  • High biofouling resistance
  • Reliable fabrication and welding characteristics 

Limitations of using copper-nickel round bars

The cost of a copper-nickel round bar is the most significant limitation since it is much greater than other materials. It involves high purchase and maintenance costs.

Maintenance costs involve professionals hiring costs, who are not always accessible. Consequently, it may compromise the performance of your bars and the application.

  • Copper-nickel bars or cupronickel round bars find use in maritime applications due to their strong corrosion resistance in saltwater, outstanding workability, and low macrofouling rate.
  • The nickel addition to copper enhances the strength and corrosion resistance of the alloy. It also helps to maintain its ductility. In saltwater, the nickel-copper hexagonal rod exhibits exceptional corrosion resistance. As a result, they have applications in piping, heat exchangers, seawater condensers, and marine equipment. One can also use them for ship propellers, hulls, fishing vessels, and crankshafts.
  • Cupronickel 90/10 round bar and 70/30 Cupronickel round bar are the most common grades.
  • Products by Doshi Impex India, a reputed copper-nickel round bars and copper rod supplier in Tanzania come in a safe and ecologically friendly manner.
