Nickel Base Alloy Clad Plates

Nickel Base Alloy Clad Plates

Nickel base alloy clad plates are composite materials made by bonding nickel-based alloys with carbon steel or stainless steel substrates through composite processes. They combine the excellent corrosion resistance of nickel-based alloys with the mechanical strength and cost advantages of the substrate.

Nickel based alloys are known for their outstanding resistance to corrosion and oxidation in extreme environments such as high temperatures, strong acids, and alkalis, making them ideal for use in industries like chemical processing, marine engineering, and nuclear power. Through composite processes like explosion welding and hot rolling, nickel-based alloy composite plates merge the surface properties of nickel-based alloys with the strength and toughness of the substrate, reducing costs while enhancing the overall material performance.

These materials are particularly suitable for demanding environments that require high-temperature and corrosion resistance, such as petrochemical equipment, seawater desalination plants, and pressure vessels.

	Clad Layer THX.	TTL THX.	Max. Width	Max. Length
Explosive	min. 3mm	–	4.5m	14m
Rolling	0.8-15mm	3-300mm	4.5m	14m

Thickness ratio of the cladding to the base material should be greater than or equal to 1:3 for roll bonding.

We can produce wide titanium-steel clad plates using a 5-meter rolling mill, ensuring the cladding layer is seamless.

Others could be tailored due to customer’s unique need.

characteristics

Different composite methods have varying requirements for the cladding and base materials. We can provide customized production based on the specific needs of our customers.

Third Party Certificate

In accordance with ASTM A578/A578M Level B, we perform 100% ultrasonic testing (UT), ensuring a bonding rate of over 99%. Tests for chemical composition, mechanical properties, low-temperature impact, hardness, PWHT (Post Weld Heat Treatment), and HIC (Hydrogen-Induced Cracking) can be conducted as per customer requirements.

Additionally, we provide EN 10204 – 3.2 certification.

DELIVERY AND PACKING

Below is our standard packing method for export transportation, for other special requirements from our customers, we can customize. The surface of the clad plates is covered with a PE plastic film, followed by a layer of hard cardboard for protection. The outermost layer is waterproofed, and labels are applied to ensure effective identification. The product is then loaded for shipment.

FAQ

Can customers specify the suppliers of raw materials such as pressure vessel steel, stainless steel, titanium, copper, and nickel-based alloys used in CLAD products when placing an order?

Of course, no problem. Our company has long-standing, strong partnerships with major steel mills such as TISCO, TSINGSHAN, Jinan Steel, CITIC Special Steel, NISCO, ANSTEEL, SHOUGANG, and SHAGANG, as well as suppliers of titanium, nickel alloys, and copper materials. Customers can specify their suppliers or provide their own raw materials.

Can we include our own specific requirements and agreements in addition to the general ordering terms?

Yes, it is certainly possible to include your own specific requirements and agreements alongside the standard ordering terms. This can be done through a customized agreement or contract that outlines any additional specifications, terms, or conditions unique to your order. It is essential that both parties reach mutual agreement on these additional terms before proceeding with the order to ensure clarity and alignment.

Can the customer request third-party inspection and a 3.2 certificate of compliance?

Yes, customers can request third-party inspection and the issuance of a 3.2 certificate of compliance. This certificate, which verifies that the product meets specific quality standards, can be provided upon request. The third-party inspection will be conducted by a recognized independent entity to ensure that the product complies with the agreed-upon specifications. Please inform us in advance if this is required, so we can make the necessary arrangements.

Does the company maintain a regular stock of cladded plates for quick delivery?

Due to the specific nature of cladded plates, each order is typically accompanied by a technical agreement, making it difficult for us to keep a large inventory. However, we do maintain some stock of certain grades of cladded plates. Feel free to inquire with us about availability.

What is the typical delivery time for your company’s cladded plates?

The delivery time depends on the arrival of base materials and cladding materials. If there are no special technical requirements, both rolling and explosion bonding processes can typically be completed and delivered within 25-35 days after the raw materials arrive.
