NICKEL ALLOY

Colmonoy Hardsurfacing Alloys | Nicrobraz Brazing Filler Metals

A nickel alloy is an alloy whose main constituent is nickel.

Nickel is a bright silver-white metallic element of the iron group and is hard, malleable, and ductile.

Symbol Ni. Atomic weight: 58.6

An alloy is a mixture containing two or more metallic elements or metallic and nonmetallic elements usually fused together or dissolved into each other when molten.

Nickel and nickel alloys are able to withstand an assortment of extreme operating conditions involving environments that are corrosive, high temperature, high stress, and combinations of these factors. Pure nickel itself is tough, ductile and corrosion resistant and provides an excellent base for developing specialized nickel alloys.

Nickel and nickel alloys are used for a wide variety of applications, the majority of which involve corrosion resistance and/or heat resistance. Wall Colmonoy is the world's leading manufacturer of hard surfacing nickel alloy powders since 1938.

Wall Colmonoy nickel alloys meet the AWS A5.13-80 and AMS 4775 specification. Colmonoy 4, 5, 6, and 56 nickel alloys contain chromium boride crystals. The diamond-like hardness of chromium-boride crystals make Colmonoy nickel alloys ideal for protecting parts from wear. Colmonoy premium nickel alloys are the world's only wear-resistant alloys containing chromium-boride crystals.

Colmonoy nickel powder alloys for hard surfacing are your best defense against abrasion, corrosion and high temperatures and have been extending the service life of machinery for over 50 years. Hard surfacing involves the application of wear-resistant powder alloys to new parts where wear is anticipated, or to worn parts to replace metal lost through wear.

By protecting metal parts against the prime factors of wear -- abrasion, corrosion, high heat, impact and galling -- Colmonoy nickel alloys prolong the service life of new parts and restore worn components. The results are lower repair and replacement costs, less downtime, and increased productivity.

Each year, millions of metal industrial machinery parts are protected and restored with Colmonoy nickel alloys and thermal spray systems. Call or email Wall Colmonoy Corporation today for consultation on how Colmonoy nickel alloy powders can extend or restore the service life of your metal parts.
