New Alloy: Inconel® 617 is now available from Alloy Wire. Learn about Inconel® 617
Datasheet: Nickel® 201
A commercially pure Nickel (typically 99.6% Nickel), Nickel 201 is essentially the same as Nickel 200, but with a lower Carbon content to prevent embrittlement by inter granular carbon at temperatures over 315°C (600°F). Lower carbon content also reduces hardness.
Nickel® 201 is also known as Phyweld 201.
Available in all profile options
Low-carbon version of Nickel 200.
Preferred to Nickel 200 for applications involving exposure to temperatures above 315°C (600°F).
Resistant to various reducing chemicals & caustic alkalies.
Good magnetostrictive properties.
High electrical and thermal conductivity.
Good ductility and low work hardening rate.
Good weldability and solderability.

Annealed | <500 N/mm² (<73 ksi) | Tensile strength and elongation drop significantly at temperatures above 315 °C (600 °F). Service temperature is dependent on environment, load and size range. |
Hard Drawn | 700 – 900 N/mm² (102 – 131 ksi) | Tensile strength and elongation drop significantly at temperatures above 315 °C (600 °F). Service temperature is dependent on environment, load and size range. |
The above tensile strength ranges are typical. If you require different please ask.
