Alloy K500 is a precipitation hardened nickel-copper-aluminum alloy that combines the excellent corrosion resistance of alloy 400 with higher strength and hardness, and outperforms other nickel-copper alloys. The addition of titanium and aluminum elements gives K500 twice the tensile strength and three times the yield strength of alloy 400. This high strength can be maintained up to 649°C, while the material remains malleable and ductile at temperatures as low as -240°C. Another advantage of the K500 alloy is that it remains non-magnetic at temperatures as low as -129°C. Therefore, K500 is an ideal material for applications with or with electronics that require magnetic fields as an interfering factor, such as downhole equipment. The K500 also has spark resistance and excellent corrosion resistance, and is resistant to a wide range of chemical elements and marine environments such as salts, alkalis, acids, and non-oxidizing acids.
