Cupronickel (copper nickel) is an alloy of copper, nickel and strengthening elements such as iron and manganese. Cupronickel exhibits superior corrosion resistance in seawater. Because of this, it is used for marine hardware, piping systems and sometimes for the propellers, crankshafts and hulls of premium tugboats, fishing boats and other working boats. The cupronickel alloy technology has been known by the Chinese since the third century BC under the name white copper and was used in corrosive environments. It is still used extensively in modern boat building. It is uniquely qualified as an ideal candidate for piping systems in the ship-building industry due to its alloy properties, including low general corrosion rates in seawater, resistance to stress corrosion cracking due to ammonia in seawater, high resistance to crevice corrosion and stress corrosion due to chlorides, good pitting resistance, ready weldability, ease of fabrication and inherent resistance to biofouling. In some cases, cupronickel seawater piping systems can last a ship’s lifetime.

Characteristics of Copper Nickel Alloy ;

• Good Resistance to stress corrosion & cavitation erosion.
• Excellent resistance to sea water
• Good thermal stability (up to approx. 300 )
• Good cold - workability
• Good Welding and solder properties.
