Nickel Sheet
Nickel sheet is a flat, often thin sheet constructed of the metal nickel or nickel alloys. Nickel sheets are among the number of items that can be formed from nickel. Besides being able to withstand extreme temperatures, nickel alloys can be welded, machined and hot and cold worked. Nickel sheet can be constructed from scratch or recycled from existing nickel sheet or other nickel products. Nickel sheet can be cut, punched, folded, stamped, or pressed, depending on the particular application or use.
Nickel is an element that is malleable, somewhat ferromagnetic, hard and ductile and a conductor of electricity and heat. Nickel is very strong and can handle incredibly high temperatures. It is used most often in the stainless steel industry because it is strong and can withstand breaking under high forces, it can bend and yield before cracking or breaking, and it increases the steel's strength, ductility, rust resistance, and value.
Nickel sheet is typically supplied to stainless steel and low alloy steel foundries and chemical companies. Most manufacturers also supply nickel sheet to the aerospace, automotive, medical, foodservice and many other industries.
