Special Grades

SPECIAL RESISTANCE ALLOYS

We can offer the following special resistance alloys.

NiFe70 and NiFe52: These alloys have low resistivity and high temperature coefficient of resistance. They are used for applications that require a current regulation. They can be used for temperatures up to 600°C. Applications of these alloys include low temperature heating, voltage regulators, resistors sensitive to temperature and temperature compensating devices, to name a few.

NiMn4Si: This alloy is characterized by high melting point and good corrosion resistance. lt is used in special resistance applications.
