Fabrication and Heat Treatment of Monel Alloy K500
Machinability
Nickel Alloy K-500 is machined in the annealed condition.
Forming
Monel K500 can be formed using standard methods in the annealed condition.
Welding
DIN 2.4375 Alloy K500 is welded using all conventional methods in the annealed condition. After this process, stress-relief annealing is performed for the finished weldment.
Heat Treatment
Nickelvac K-500™ is heat treated by annealing. It can also be precipitation-hardened by performing aging heat treatment.
Forging
Monel K-500 is forged at 1038 to 1149°C (1900 to 2100°F) followed by quenching in water.
Hot Working
Monel K500 is hot worked at 872 to 1149°C (1600 to 2100°F) followed by quenching in water. It should not be cooled below 872°C (1600°F).
Cold Working
Monel K500 can be cold worked using standard methods
Annealing
Monel K500 is annealed at 1038°C (1900°F) followed by quenching in water.
Aging
Annealed or slightly cold-worked material is age-hardened at 608°C (1125°F ) for 16 h followed by cooling in a furnace. Severely cold-worked material is aged at 538°C (1000°F) for 6 h followed by cooling in a furnace.
