COPPER NICKEL INSERTS
The Copper-Nickel Forged Fitting Inserts by Nexus Alloys and Steels are high-quality fittings primarily used in plumbing and industrial applications. They are made from a copper-nickel alloy, known for its excellent resistance to corrosion, especially in marine environments. These Inserts are forged, a process that involves heating the alloy until it’s malleable and then hammering or pressing it into the desired shape. This process increases the strength and durability of the fittings, making them suitable for high-pressure applications
DESCRIPTION
The Inserts from Nexus Alloys and Steels are designed to fit inside a larger component, providing a secure, leak-proof connection. They come in various sizes and shapes to accommodate different types of pipes and tubes. Overall, Copper-Nickel Forged Fitting Inserts manufactured by Nexus Alloys and Steels are a reliable and durable choice for any application that requires strong, corrosion-resistant connections
Key Features of Copper-Nickel Inserts

GRADES
- Copper Nickel 90/10 (C70600) : Comprising 90% copper and 10% nickel, this alloy incorporates minor quantities of iron and manganese, enhancing its strength and hardness. Exceptionally ductile, it can be formed into intricate shapes without the risk of cracking or breaking. The alloy exhibits elevated levels of strength and toughness, even under high temperatures. With a yield strength of 221 MPa and a tensile strength of 483 MPa, it attains an ultimate tensile strength of 760 MPa. Notably, the material's elongation at break is 40%, making it particularly suitable for applications involving high-stress conditions
- Cupro Nickel 70/30 (C71500) : Comprising 70% copper and 30% nickel, this alloy includes minor quantities of iron and manganese, augmenting its strength and corrosion resistance. The addition of nickel contributes to enhanced resistance against seawater corrosion and biofouling, rendering it well-suited for marine applications. With an ultimate tensile strength of 310 MPa and a yield strength of 110 MPa, it boasts an elongation at break of 40%, making it suitable for various forming and bending operations
