Copper Nickel Plate & Sheet
Farmer’s Copper Ltd. maintains a broad inventory of Copper Nickel C70600 and C71500. Copper nickel is known for its great resistance to seawater, as well as many other hazardous elements presented to metals. C706 and C715 are commonly used in seawater environments because of total resistance to barnacle growth, which is created by a thin tenacious protective film formation.
Typical Copper Nickel Applications
- Pressure vessels
- Seawater piping systems
- Hull plate
- Condensers
- Heat exchangers
