for Quotation NICKEL
SILVER
NICKEL SILVERS are copper
alloys with the additions of zinc and nickel. Their special blend
of mechanical properties, physical properties and performance
characteristics depend on the relative proportions of the three
elements. Their attractive colour varies from pale gold to silvery
white. They are termed nickel silvers because they contain nickel
and are, by and large, silvery in appearance. But the term is some
what misleading since they are neither nickel-based alloys nor do
they contain silver! They are best considered as brasses to which
nickel is added, primarily to improve tarnish resistance,
oxidation resistance and general mechanical performance
characteristics.
Nickel Silvers are
capable of providing a unique combination of strength, high
modulus spring properties, corrosion resistance, anti-gaulling
properties, excellent cryogenic performance and numerous other attributes
combined with ease of forming, machining, plating and joining.
