Product Overview
Cupro Nickel 90/10 nuts are corrosion-resistant fasteners manufactured from a copper-nickel alloy containing 90% copper and 10% nickel, designated as UNS C70600. These nuts are produced in accordance with ASTM B151 and B151M standards, offering excellent resistance to seawater corrosion, biofouling, and stress corrosion cracking. Their inherent ductility and non-magnetic properties make them ideal for marine and offshore applications where reliability and longevity are critical.
Cupro Nickel 90/10 nuts are widely specified for use in heat exchangers, condensers, shipbuilding, and desalination plants due to their outstanding performance in saline and brackish water environments. They are compatible with Cupro Nickel 90/10 bolts and studs, ensuring galvanic compatibility and long-term joint integrity.
