CW352H Copper Nickel Bar
For marine & hygienic environments
CW352H is a Euro Norm copper-nickel alloy that we stock in solid round bars. The chemical and mechanical properties of the alloy are to BS EN 12163.
Our stocked solid round bar products come in various diameters, available in closer increments. Stocking bars in this way are attractive because often, we have material stock available in sizes which negate the need for you to machine the material down. Ultimately, procuring materials to your size requirements saves you time and money.
Introduction
CW352H is an alternative specification for 90/10 copper-nickel alloy comprising 90% copper (Cu) and 10% nickel (Ni). Trace elements, including iron and manganese, are included in the production mix. CW352H offers a balance of performance characteristics, making the engineering raw material highly suitable for oil, gas, petrochemical and marine hardware applications. CW354H offers slightly better tensile strength compared to CW352H.
Performance
CW352H benefits from excellent corrosion resistance and also good resistance to hydrogen embrittlement. With moderate strength, high toughness and high ductility, the material is highly effective at resisting corrosion in saltwater environments. Effective resistance to biological fouling is also a benefit, which is a constant problem in the offshore and marine sectors. Excellent anti-microbial characteristics make the alloy popular in hygienic environments such as hospitals and clean rooms.
