Because Invar 36 holds its size and shape when temperatures rise, these nickel-iron alloy sheets are the go-to material when dimensional stability is required. They are commonly used when precision is a priority, such as for scientific instruments and optical devices.

Use this nickel-iron-cobalt alloy as a magnetic shield to protect electronic equipment from EMI/RFI interference.

From marine hardware to chemical-processing equipment, 400 nickel sheets and bars are widely used for their strength, weldability, and formability. Comparable to Monel, this nickel-copper alloy will stand up to highly corrosive environments, such as those involving salt water, sulfuric acid, and alkalies.

These nickel-iron-cobalt alloy sheets expand at the same rate as glass when heated. They offer better machinability than Invar 36 and are often used anywhere a dependable glass-to-metal seal is required, such as in diodes and microwave tubes.

Even in temperatures up to 2000° F, Alloy X nickel sheets offer good strength and weldability, along with excellent oxidation resistance. They're often used for components in gas turbine engines and furnaces. This material is equivalent to Inconel HX and Hastelloy X.
