Nilo 36 Sheet

A nickel-iron low-expansion alloy containing 36% nickel. It maintains nearly constant dimensions over the range of normal atmospheric temperatures, and has a low coefficient of expansion from cryogenic temperatures to about 500°F (260°C). The alloy also retains good strength and toughness at cryogenic temperatures. Used for standards of length, measuring devices, laser components, bi-metal thermostat strip, thermostat rods and tanks and piping for storing and transporting liquefied gases.STANDARD PRODUCT FORMSPipe, tube, sheet, plate, round bar, forging stock and wire.
