Nickel-Alloy Fasteners
Nickel alloys such as Monel, Inconel and Hastelloy are used where stainless is not enough: severe corrosion, high temperature or both.
Common alloys
| Alloy | Typical spec | Strength point |
|---|---|---|
| Monel 400 | ASTM B164; F467/F468 | Seawater, acids |
| Monel K-500 | ASTM B865 | Age-hardened, higher strength |
| Inconel 625 | ASTM B446 | Heat and corrosion |
| Inconel 718 | AMS / ASTM B637 | High strength at temperature |
| Hastelloy C-276 | ASTM B574 | Severe chemical service |
