Product Overview
Cupro Nickel 70/30 screws are corrosion-resistant fasteners manufactured from a copper-nickel alloy containing 70% copper and 30% nickel, designated as UNS C71500. These screws are produced from ASTM B151 or B151M bar and rod, offering excellent resistance to seawater, brine, and marine atmospheres. The addition of iron and manganese enhances their resistance to impingement and erosion, making them ideal for marine and offshore applications.
Cupro Nickel 70/30 screws are widely specified for shipbuilding, desalination plants, and heat exchanger assemblies where long-term durability and resistance to biofouling are critical. They are non-magnetic, exhibit good ductility, and maintain mechanical integrity even after prolonged exposure to aggressive environments.
