Machining Material Monel K500
Monel K500 is a Nickel-based heat resistant superalloy (HRSA) material with a Machinability rating of 35% and Hardness of 88 HRB.
Monel K500 has 66% nickel and additional alloying elements per the below table.
The main feature of nickel-based alloys is their excellent strength across a wide temperature range combined with good corrosion resistance. In this sub-group, the material standards also define the allowed hardness range, and hardness is a significant factor affecting the machinability (besides the chemical composition).
Monel K500 is among the least hard of the nickel-based alloys, and accordingly has relatively high machinability of 35%
Superalloys should be machined with a positive and sharp cutting edges. Geometries that are suitable for austenitic stainless steel will also work well on HRSA. However, quality manufacturers will have in their catalogs additional geometries that are specifically designed for these challenging materials.
