Established and prominent in Midland, UK, Marcus Metals has grown up to be a highly revered manufacturer and supplier of excellent metal products. Boasting a rich industry experience, we cater to numerous industries and provide a variety of metals, including Copper Nickel Rectangular Bars. Highly recognized for their excellent corrosion and abrasion resistance properties and durability, these Copper Nickel Rectangular Bars are specifically perfect for marine, chemical, and industrial applications. We stress precision, quality, and customer satisfaction in all the products from Marcus Metals. All products ensure high standards, so that we remain one of the reliable choices for metal supplies throughout the UK and overseas.
Copper Nickel Rectangular Bars are made of 90% copper and 10% nickel, though other compositions like 70/30 Copper-Nickel alloys are also widely used. The composition is very effective in resisting corrosion, especially in marine environments, and enhances the strength and durability of the material. The bars have excellent resistance to stress corrosion cracking, erosion, and biofouling. Mechanical properties of these bars have tensile strengths that vary between 300 MPa and 550 MPa, with approximate yield strengths at 150 MPa. Their elongation usually falls within a 30-40 percent bracket, which makes these copper-nickel alloys best suited for demanding usage applications in the marine and chemical sectors, as well as industries.
