NiCu-alloys and their welding fillers have a Ni-content of 50 - 70 % and are grouped together under the name Silverin.
Silverin 404 (NiCu45) is used for electronic parts due to its low magnetic permeability.
Silverin 400 (NiCu30Fe) features an excellent resistance to hydrofluoric acid and to seawater corrosion. Fields of application are plant and apparatus engineering as well as shipbuilding.
Silverin 500 (NiCu30Al) is age-hardenable thanks to its increased aluminum and titanium content. The final hardness ranges from 24 – 44 HRC depending on the material condition before hardening. The main field of application of this alloy are Doctor Blades used in the paper manufacturing industry. This alloy is also used in shipbuilding.
IGS-Silverin 418 is a welding filler that is processed into strip electrodes which are used for submerged arc welding of parts for chemical plant engineering and marine engineering.
