Applications of Nickel 200 Pipe

Nickel 200 pipes are the industry standard for caustic and reducing chemical environments

Caustic Soda / NaOH Plants

Primary material for NaOH handling at all concentrations. Near-zero corrosion rate in caustic environments up to 50% concentration at temperatures below 315°C.

Food Processing Equipment

FDA-approved pure nickel pipes for food and beverage transfer. Non-toxic, non-contaminating surface ideal for dairy, pharmaceutical, and food manufacturing.

Electronics & Semiconductor

High-purity nickel piping for semiconductor fab gas delivery systems. Excellent for handling high-purity chemicals and deionized water systems.

Chemical Processing

Corrosion-resistant piping for organic and inorganic chemical transfer. Excellent resistance to reducing acids, alkaline solutions, and dry halogens.

Hydrogen Handling Systems

Nickel 200 pipes for hydrogen generation and storage systems. Good resistance to hydrogen embrittlement at ambient temperatures with excellent permeability characteristics.

Heat Exchangers & Condensers

ASTM B163 tubes for shell-and-tube heat exchangers in caustic service. Superior thermal conductivity compared to high-alloy alternatives.

Frequently Asked Questions — Nickel 200 Pipe

Common technical questions about Nickel 200 pipes, grades, and supply

What is Nickel 200 pipe and what are its properties?+
Nickel 200 (UNS N02200) is a commercially pure wrought nickel alloy containing a minimum of 99.6% nickel. It offers excellent corrosion resistance in reducing environments, particularly against caustic alkalis like sodium hydroxide (NaOH). The alloy has outstanding mechanical properties including good ductility, thermal conductivity, and magnetostrictive properties. Nickel 200 pipes manufactured to ASTM B161 (seamless) and ASTM B163 (tube) are widely used in chemical processing, food handling, and electronics industries.
What is the difference between Nickel 200 and Nickel 201 pipe?+
The primary difference between Nickel 200 and Nickel 201 lies in their carbon content. Nickel 200 has a maximum carbon content of 0.15% while Nickel 201 is limited to 0.02% carbon maximum. This carbon difference makes Nickel 200 suitable for service temperatures below 315°C (600°F), while Nickel 201 is preferred for temperatures above 315°C where graphitization of carbon can occur. Both grades share similar corrosion resistance properties in caustic and reducing environments. For most ambient and moderately elevated temperature applications, Nickel 200 is the more economical choice.
Why is Nickel 200 pipe preferred for caustic soda (NaOH) handling?+
Nickel 200 is the industry-standard material for handling caustic soda at all concentrations up to 50% NaOH at temperatures below 315°C. The 99.6% pure nickel composition provides near-zero corrosion rates in sodium hydroxide solutions, unlike stainless steels which suffer from stress corrosion cracking in caustic environments. Nickel 200 pipes resist both general corrosion and localized attack in NaOH service, making them essential for chlor-alkali plants, pulp and paper mills, and chemical manufacturing facilities. The alloy maintains its integrity even in hot concentrated caustic solutions where other materials would rapidly deteriorate.
What is the temperature limitation for Nickel 200 pipe?+
Nickel 200 pipe has a recommended maximum service temperature of 315°C (600°F). Above this temperature, the 0.15% carbon content in Nickel 200 can migrate to grain boundaries causing graphitization, which leads to embrittlement and intergranular cracking. For applications requiring exposure above 315°C, Nickel 201 (low carbon grade with 0.02% C max) should be specified instead. Creative Metal Industries stocks both Nickel 200 and Nickel 201 to ensure correct grade selection based on your operating temperature requirements.
What sizes of Nickel 200 pipe does Creative Metal Industries supply?+
Creative Metal Industries supplies Nickel 200 seamless pipes from 1/2" NB to 8" NB in schedules SCH 10S through SCH 80S as per ASTM B161. We also stock Nickel 200 welded pipes from 2" to 8" NB and Nickel 200 tubes per ASTM B163 in OD range 6.35mm to 114.3mm with wall thickness BWG 14 to 22. All pipes come with full mill test certificates, and we offer additional testing including hydrostatic, ultrasonic, PMI, and eddy current testing. Custom lengths and non-standard sizes can be arranged on request with typical lead times of 4-6 weeks.
What is the price range for Nickel 200 pipe in India?+
The price of Nickel 200 pipe in India typically ranges from Rs 3,000 to Rs 7,500 per kilogram depending on size, schedule, quantity, and current nickel LME rates. Seamless pipes to ASTM B161 command a premium over welded pipes due to the manufacturing process. Creative Metal Industries offers competitive pricing with direct mill sourcing and maintains ready stock of common sizes in our Vadodara warehouse.
