COPPER NICKEL END-CAP
The Copper Nickel End-Cap offered by Nexus Alloys and Steels is a high-quality pipe fitting designed for use in various industrial applications. This end-cap is made from a copper-nickel alloy, known for its excellent resistance to corrosion. This makes it particularly suitable for use in harsh environments such as marine and offshore industries. The copper-nickel alloy also provides a unique combination of high strength, excellent formability, and good thermal and electrical conductivity. The “End-Cap” in its name refers to its function in a piping system. It is used to seal the end of a pipe, effectively capping it off. This is crucial in preventing leaks and maintaining the integrity of the piping system

GRADES
- Cu-Ni 90/10 (UNS C70600) : Known as Copper Nickel 90/10, this alloy is composed of 90% copper and 10% nickel, blended with iron and manganese to deliver impressive strength and corrosion resistance. Widely applied in marine settings, it exhibits remarkable resistance to seawater, brine water, organic compounds, salts, diluted non-oxidizing acids, and more
- Cu-Ni 70/30 (UNS C71500) : Also recognized as Copper Nickel 70/30, this grade features 70% copper and 30% nickel, with minor additions of iron and manganese enhancing overall strength and corrosion resistance. It surpasses Copper Nickel 90/10 in its resistance to corrosion and erosion, making it well-suited for demanding conditions in marine and industrial services
