HPM® 270 Highest Purity Nickel

HPM ® 270 Nickel is the highest purity Nickel. The controlled low impurity level provides uniform and repeatable mechanical, electrical, and magnetic properties. The material has excellent corrosion resistance with high thermal and electrical conductivities. A high thermal coefficient of electrical resistance makes it suitable for strain gauges, temperature sensors, and electronic components. The alloy can be formed by all conventional cold forming methods, and can be joined by resistance welding, brazing and soldering. The corrosion resistance is generally very good in most mediums, although, it is subject to intergranular embrittlement by sulfur compounds above 315°C Available Sizes: HPM ® 270 Nickel is available from Hamilton Precision Metals as strip product in thicknesses from 0.0005” to 0.020” (0.0127 mm to 0.508 mm) in widths up to 12.0” (304.8 mm). It is available as foil as thin
