Monel is a copper nickel alloy. The distinctive advantage of copper nickel alloy is their superior resistance to corrosion and erosion in high velocity seawater. Also a great alloy for use in the chemical industry.

The high nickel content contributes significantly to corrosion protection. and enhances toughness and ductility and improves resistance to stress corrosion and corrosion fatigue.

Copper nickels have interesting capabilities. Compared to other alloys it seems expensive. In some cases. the life span of the nickel copper far out weighs the expense.
