Copper Nickel 90/10 Tubing

90/10 Copper Nickel Tubing is an alloy tube composed of copper and nickel. The tubing contains 90% copper, 6.67% nickel, 1.57% iron, and 1.78% manganese, balanced with small amounts of lead and sulfur for strength. Copper Nickel 90/10 Tubing has excellent corrosion resistance properties due to its chemical composition, making it ideal for saltwater environments. It is also resistant to erosion by various chemicals and strong enough for high-pressure applications such as fuel lines, condenser tubes, and exhaust systems. Copper Nickel 90/10 Tubing also works well as plumbing components, perfect for potable water tanks because of its hygienic nature and low bacterial retention rate.

With its high heat resistance and excellent corrosion protection, Copper Nickel 90/10 Tubing is becoming an increasingly popular choice for marine applications. The alloy has incredible resistance to seawater, which makes it more reliable than traditional brass tubing. In addition, due to its higher nickel content, the alloy exhibits good strength at a wide range of temperatures. It also offers superior durability against pressure cycling, stress, fatigue, and general wear and tear. The material is approved by the shipbuilding industry worldwide, serving thousands of ocean vessels across multiple fleets.
