Copper Nickel Nuts

Copper Nickel Nuts are an ideal mixture of copper and nickel with additions of manganese and ferrous contents like iron which when combined together fight seawater corrosion. Cupro nickel fasteners and copper nickel fasteners are the most common trade names used in the fastener industry. It is used in marine seawater applications show excessive resistance towards corrosions and are often used for its unique feature of thermal stability.

[vc_empty_space height=”32px”]Copper Nickel Nuts are available in two variations viz 70-30 (C70600) and 90-10( C71500 ) .C70600 Copper nickel is stronger as of the two with a yield strength of 150 Mpa in annealed condition as compared to 120 Mpa of C75100 Copper Nickel. Especially in case of cupro nickel 70-30 bolts as compared to copper nickel 70-10 bolts where tensile is the deciding factor due to high level of corrosion in marine applications. Torqbolt is a well known Copper Nickel Nuts supplier in India. [/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space height=”32px”][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]

Due to excellent resistance towards marine water corrosion, more than 90% it used in the marine industry with attachments of copper nickel flanges, pipes and fittings. Salt water flanged connections are very well protected with copper nickel bolts set with cupro nickel nut and washers. Propeller shafts, distiller tubes, ferrule fittings all are attached with cupro nickel screws with nuts as a pair. [vc_empty_space height=”30px”]Automotive Use
Copper nickel bolts are quite famous for automotive components like the steering tube and brake lines. [vc_empty_space height=”30px”]Fabrication
Copper Nickel Studs used for pressure vessels, heat exchangers, condenser plates, valve bodies and evaporators are very much in demand.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tab][/vc_tour][/vc_column][/vc_row]
