Nickel 205
UNS N02205
Description
Nickel 205 is a wrought nickel alloy with properties similar to that of Nickel 200 alloy, but with compositional adjustments to enhance the performance in electronic applications. It has the properties of excellent mechanical, electrical and corrosion-resistant properties and good oxidation resistance. The alloy is ferromagnetic below 360 °C (680 °F), and contains small additions of aluminum and titanium. Nickel 205 is recommended for the electronic and electrical industries.
