Vipul Pipes and Tubes, CHENNAI, India-based company, is a well-known producer and supplier of Copper Nickel Instrumentation Tubing with outstanding corrosion resistance, excellent mechanical properties, and dependability in hostile conditions. The tubes are highly engineered for critical instrumentation and control systems in marine, offshore, and industrial uses. Produced in general grades such as Cu-Ni 90/10 and 70/30, the tubing has superior performance in brine and seawater conditions. Vipul Pipes ensures uniform quality, close dimensional tolerances, and long life, so that our Copper Nickel Instrumentation Tubing is a choice preferred for rigorous engineering systems globally.
Copper Nickel Instrumentation Tubing has Copper (Cu: 90% or 70%), Nickel (Ni: 10% or 30%), with small traces of Iron (Fe: 1–1.8%) and Manganese (Mn: 0.5–1%) added to provide strength and resistance to seawater.
Mechanical Properties:
Tensile Strength: 320–520 MPa
Yield Strength: 100–240 MPa
Elongation: 30–45%
