Alloy 201 / N02201

Nickel is a very versatile metal, both in pure form and with the addition of other alloying elements. The key benefits of nickel alloys come from its ability to withstand a wide variety of severe operating conditions, including: corrosive environments, high temperatures, high stresses, and combinations of these factors. As a result, these alloys have extensive commercial uses for manufacturers across the globe. Although popular in commercially pure forms, nickel has the ability to alloy with a wide range of metals, putting nickel alloy metals are at the forefront of modern metallurgy. Growth in demand from industrial sectors for metals alloys with high strength and excellent corrosion resistance at high temperature, has ensured ongoing development of nickel alloy grades. The Knight Group works closely in partnerships with several mills to ensure our customers always have access to new nickel alloy developments.
