R405 Hex Bar - UNS N04405 - Monel 405™ Equivalent

Hex Bar

Monel R-405™ is a nickel-copper-alloy. This high strength, free-machining grade of 400 has more sulfur, improving its machinability. While it maintains virtually the same corrosion resistance and physical properties as 400, it's slightly different range of mechanical properties are best recommended for screw machine stock.

Other components that may use Monel R-405™ bar stock include valve parts and fasteners used in corrosive marine and seawater applications, and this alloy is especially resistant to de-aerated hydrochloric and hydrofluoric acids. Aeration of these acids will reduce the excellent corrosion resistance found in alloy R-405™ fasteners.
