Copper Nickel Fittings Manufacturer
Farmer’s Copper Ltd. maintains a broad inventory of Copper Nickel C70600 (90/10) and C71500 (70/30) fittings. These copper nickel alloys prove to have very good resistance to seawater, brine water, organic compounds, neutral and alkaline salts, diluted non-oxidizing acids, and more. The copper nickel alloys are most commonly used in seawater environments because of the anti-fouling. Copper nickel creates a thin tenacious protective film formation, which eliminates any marine life to adhere to the pipe walls. Observations in velocity tests over a number of years indicates that the surface profile of copper nickel tended to become smoother rather than rougher at velocities where metal loss reached measurable amounts.
Farmer’s Copper Ltd. can provide you with your copper nickel pipe, fittings, flange requirements, and assist you with additional technical data of joining copper nickel piping systems. Along with our pipe, fittings, and flanges; we also inventory sheet, plate, and round rod for fabrication. Please contact one of our experts today to find out how we can help meet your copper nickel needs.
