What Are Monel 400 Plates & Why Do Buyers Trust Them in Harsh Environments?

Monel 400 (UNS N04400 / Werkstoff Nr. 2.4360) is a nickel-copper alloy known for:

  • Seawater Resistance: Exceptional performance in marine & offshore conditions.
  • Acid Protection: Resistant to hydrofluoric acid, hydrochloric acid, and alkaline salts.
  • High-Temperature Service: Stable from cryogenic to 550°C continuous exposure.
  • Audit Confidence: Meets ASTM, ASME, NACE standards with full traceability.

Buyers choose Monel 400 plates because they cut maintenance costs, prevent shutdown losses, and ensure consultant approval at first inspection.

Applications of Alloy 400 Plates in Chemical, Marine, Oil & Gas, and Energy Industries

Monel 400 Plates are a strategic material for industries where ordinary steel fails. Typical uses include:

  • Chemical Processing: Acid-resistant tanks, piping, heat exchangers.
  • Marine & Offshore: Pump shafts, seawater piping, condenser plates.
  • Oil & Gas: Sour gas service, refinery vessels, desalination units.
  • Power & Energy: Nuclear fuel reprocessing, pollution control equipment.

Wherever corrosion = catastrophe, Alloy 400 plates are the safe investment.

Chemical Composition of Alloy 400 Plates (UNS N04400 / Werkstoff 2.4360)

Element % Composition Role in Alloy
Nickel (Ni) 63–70% Base strength & corrosion resistance
Copper (Cu) 28–34% Key for acid & seawater resistance
Iron (Fe) 2.5% max Minor balance element
Manganese (Mn) 2% max Improves workability
Carbon (C) 0.3% max Controlled for weldability
Silicon (Si) 0.5% max Enhances oxidation resistance
Sulphur (S) 0.024% max Strictly controlled for quality

International Standards & Equivalent Grades of Monel 400 Plates

Buyers often worry: “Will the plates pass international inspections without rejection?”
At Navgraha Steels INC, all Monel 400 Plates comply with:

  • ASTM B127 / ASME SB127
  • UNS N04400 / Werkstoff Nr. 2.4360
  • NACE MR0175 / ISO 15156 (sour gas service)
  • BS / EN / DIN equivalents available on request

These certifications ensure zero consultant objections and global acceptance.

Thickness Range, Width & Plate Sizes Available in Stock

One of the biggest buyer frustrations is non-availability of the required size.
We keep a ready stock of:

Dimension Range / Availability
Thickness 3 mm to 100 mm
Width 1000 mm to 2500 mm
Length 2500 mm to 6000 mm (custom cut sizes available)
Supply Form HR, CR, Polished, Cut-to-size, CNC profiled

This gives buyers faster delivery, reduced wastage, and optimized cost.

Surface Finishes & Corrosion Resistance of Monel 400 Plates

The right surface finish determines performance and consultant approvals.
We supply:

  • Hot Rolled (HR) Plates: Rugged & cost-effective for heavy-duty use.
  • Cold Rolled (CR) Plates: Smooth, accurate thickness for precision projects.
  • Polished Plates: For critical marine & chemical equipment.
  • 2B & BA Finishes: Consultant-preferred for high-specification service.

Combined with its natural resistance to seawater, acids, and alkalis, Monel 400 provides a lifetime of protection.

Fabrication, Machining & Welding Guidelines for Alloy 400 Plates

Engineers often ask: “Is Monel 400 easy to machine or weld?”
The answer is yes, with the right expertise.

  • Machining: Requires sharp tools and slower speeds due to work-hardening.
  • Welding: Excellent weldability with gas-tungsten (GTAW), gas-metal (GMAW), and shielded-metal (SMAW) processes.
  • Forming: Can be readily formed in annealed condition.
  • Heat Treatment: Stress relieving after welding improves corrosion resistance.

With Navgraha Steel’s guidance, buyers avoid fabrication delays and costly shop-floor errors.
