As a trusted ASTM B161 N02201 Seamless Pipe Manufacturer,We specialize in the production and supply of Nickel 201 (UNS N02201) seamless pipes and tubes, manufactured according to ASTM B161 specifications for high-performance and corrosion-resistant applications in chemical processing, marine, and electronics industries.
ASTM B161 UNS N02201 Seamless Pipes
Nickel 201 is a low-carbon (≤0.02%) variant of commercially pure nickel (Nickel 200), offering excellent resistance to alkalis and acidic environments while preventing embrittlement caused by intergranular carbon precipitation. It is ideal for high-temperature, high-purity, and non-magnetic applications.
