Product Description
We offer high-quality nickel plates and sheets crafted from refined nickel and nickel alloys. These materials are prized for their strong corrosion resistance, thermal stability, and excellent mechanical properties—making them suitable for rigorous industrial environments. Whether you need standard stock sizes or custom-cut sheets, our nickel plates deliver reliability and performance.
Material Grades & Purities
We supply nickel in various purity levels so you can choose what’s right for your application:
| Purity Level | Typical Grade | Key Properties |
|---|---|---|
| 99% and up | Commercial Nickel (UNS N02200, etc.) | Good general corrosion resistance and fabrication ease |
| 99.9% / 99.99% | High-purity nickel | Enhanced performance in sensitive environments or high-precision uses |
| Specialty alloys | Nickel-based alloys | Custom chemical / mechanical properties (e.g. higher strength, special corrosion or temperature resistance) |
Dimensions & Forms
- Thickness Range: Often greater than about 2.0 mm for plates; thinner for sheets depending on design needs
- Width & Length: Up to approx. 1,050 mm in width and ~7,500 mm in length are typical, though custom sizes are possible
- Surface Condition / Temper:
- Annealed (soft, more ductile)
- Half-hard or Hard (improved stiffness / strength)
Physical & Chemical Properties
- Corrosion Behavior: Excellent resistance against many corrosive agents including alkaline solutions
- Mechanical Qualities: Good ductility and malleability; can be formed, cut, shaped with care
- Thermal & Electrical: High thermal and electrical conductivity relative to many alloys; retains integrity at elevated temperatures
- Magnetic: Often exhibits ferromagnetism depending on alloying elements and purity
Applications
Nickel plates / sheets are widely used in many industries due to their combination of strength, resistance, and workability. Common uses include:
- Heat exchangers, boilers, and steam components
- Chemical processing equipment (resisting aggressive chemicals and alkalis)
- Components in batteries, electrodes, and electronic devices
- Structural parts exposed to high temperature or corrosive atmosphere
- Decorative or protective cladding, where durability and finish matter
