Strong, corrosion-resistant, and stable for long-term use at up to 1800° F, these Haynes® 230 nickel sheets are often used in furnaces and heat-treatment facilities. Containing tungsten and molybdenum for strength, they can be up to 75% thinner than other high-temperature alloy sheets while achieving the same load-bearing capacity. They’ll also last up to 100 times as long as other high-temperature alloys, such as stainless steel and nickel alloys. They’ll resist corrosion in extreme heat, even from harsh chemicals such as sulfuric and hydrochloric acid. Haynes 230® nickel can be used in environments for nitriding—a process used to make steel more corrosion resistant—without being damaged. It’s easily welded, and retains its properties after welding and reshaping.

To increase strength and hardness, these K500 nickel balls contain titanium and aluminum. Comparable to Monel, they hold up to harsh chemicals and resist chloride stress corrosion better than stainless steel. They’re often used in bearings and in valves.
