Nickel 200 & 201 Sheets, Plates, Bars & Pipes – UNS N02200 / N02201

Nickel 200 & 201 (UNS N02200 / N02201) – Stockist, Supplier and Processor in Mumbai Since 1992

Nickel 200 (UNS N02200, W.Nr 2.4066) and Nickel 201 (UNS N02201, W.Nr 2.4068) are commercially pure wrought nickel, at least 99% Ni, prized for resistance to caustic alkalis, neutral and distilled water, and many food and chemical products. Nickel 201 is the low-carbon version, with carbon held to 0.02% maximum, so it can be used above about 315 °C without embrittlement. Ganesh Metals, a stockist, supplier and processor in Mumbai since 1992, supplies both grades as plate, sheet and strip to ASTM B162, bar to ASTM B160, seamless pipe and tube to ASTM B161 and welded pipe to ASTM B725, each with an EN 10204 3.1 MTC and heat-number traceability.

The choice between Nickel 200 and 201 is mainly about temperature. Nickel 200 is fine for most service up to about 315 °C; above that, the higher carbon in 200 can precipitate as graphite and embrittle the metal, so 201 is specified. For caustic soda evaporators and concentrators, 201 is the common choice. We can confirm which grade suits your process.

Why Choose Nickel 200/201?

Pure nickel offers outstanding resistance to caustic soda and other alkalis, high thermal and electrical conductivity, good ductility and magnetic properties, and a low gas content. It is easy to form, weld and fabricate, which makes it practical for vessels and tubing.

Applications:

Nickel 200 and 201 are specified for caustic alkalis, high-purity products and conductive or magnetic parts.

  • Chemical Processing: Caustic soda evaporators, concentrators and storage equipment in Nickel 201 plate and tube.

  • Pharma Equipment: High-purity vessels and parts where product contamination must be kept to a minimum.

  • Heat Exchangers: Tubes and plates for hot caustic and alkali service where stainless steels would crack.

  • Electrical & Electronics: Battery tabs, leads, anodes and shielding using conductive nickel strip.

  • Food Processing: Equipment that handles alkaline and neutral food products without discolouring them.

Nickel 200 and 201 are supplied as sheets and plates, thin strip and coils, discs and circles, round bars, seamless and welded pipes and tubes. Sizes on request – give form, dimensions and quantity.

Nickel 200/201: Specs, Sizes & Equivalents

Nickel 200 and 201 look the same, so carbon content on the MTC is how they are told apart. We match the certified grade to your order, keep the mill markings on every sheet or bar, and check thickness and dimensions against the specification before dispatch.
