Nickel Alloy 201 Forgings are made up of 99.6% pure nickel, along with small amounts of elements like iron, carbon, and copper. This unique composition gives them outstanding corrosion resistance, particularly in alkaline and reducing environments. On the mechanical side, Alloy 201 boasts good tensile strength, low hardness, and excellent ductility, which makes it perfect for forming and welding. Its low carbon content helps prevent embrittlement at high temperatures. These forgings maintain their mechanical properties in both high and low-temperature settings, making them reliable for critical operations that require purity, strength, and stability under thermal and chemical stress.
