Monel plates are mainly available in two popular grades. Both deliver strong corrosion resistance and reliable performance, but each fits different needs.
Monel 400 Plate is a solid nickel-copper alloy with about 67% nickel and 23–34% copper. It resists seawater, acids, and alkalis, which makes it a trusted choice in marine engineering, pumps, heat exchangers, and chemical plants. The plate remains durable even in cold temperatures and is simple to form and weld. Due to its strength-to-flexibility ratio it is frequently used in many industries.
Monel K-500 Plate takes the same base as Monel 400 but adds aluminum and titanium. This gives it higher strength, hardness and wear resistance while maintaining the same corrosion protection. It’s widely used in oil drilling tools, marine shafts, fasteners, and valve parts where durability under pressure matters most.
Monel 400 plate sizes are offered in standard sheet widths and lengths, with thickness options often in hot- or cold-rolled forms, so selecting the right size for your project feels easy.

Monel, a nickel-copper alloy, comes in several forms based on thickness and end-use. All three sheets, plate, and foil carry the same corrosion resistance and strength, but their dimensions and applications vary.
Monel Sheet
Monel sheet usually ranges from 0.5 mm to 6 mm in thickness. It combines strength and flexibility, making it ideal for marine fittings, chemical processing units and heat exchangers. Its formability enables simple production of complicated shapes.
Monel Plate
Monel plate is the thickest form, often measuring more than 6 mm in thickness. It is intended for heavy-duty use and is extremely durable in seawater, acidic environments, and high-pressure applications.
Monel Foil
Monel foil is the thinnest variation, generally below 0.2 mm in thickness. It is perfect for gaskets, shielding and precise parts in electronics and aerospace as it is lightweight and resistant to corrosion.
