ASTM B111 / ASME SB111 UNS C71520 Copper Nickel Alloy Seamless Tube Condenser Tube

ASTM B111 / ASME SB111 UNS C71520 (Cu-Ni 70/30) Seamless Copper Nickel Alloy Tube

Cu-Ni alloys are alloys of copper (base metal with the largest individual content) and nickel with or without other elements， whereby the zinc content may not be more than 1%. When other elements are present， nickel has the largest individual content after copper， compared with each other element. As with other copper alloys， it is necessary to distinguish between wrought alloys， which are processed to semi-finished products， and cast alloys， from which castings are produced by various casting processes. The Cu-Ni alloys with additions of manganese are important in electrical engineering. Additions of iron significantly improve the resistance of Cu-Ni alloys to erosion corrosion in flowing seawater and other aggressive waters.
