N02200 Capillary Tube Applications
Material Overview
Nickel 200 (UNS N02200) is a commercially pure wrought nickel (approximately 99.6% Ni) known for its excellent mechanical properties, high thermal and electrical conductivity, and outstanding resistance to alkalis and reducing environments.
N02200 capillary tubes are precision small-diameter tubes designed for the accurate transfer or control of fluids and gases, especially in corrosive, high-temperature, or high-purity systems.
Typical Applications
1️⃣ Chemical and Petrochemical Industry
Used in instrumentation lines, sampling systems, and control devices handling alkaline or caustic solutions such as sodium hydroxide and potassium hydroxide.
Excellent resistance to caustic corrosion makes it ideal for use in chlor-alkali production equipment.
2️⃣ Electronic and Instrumentation Systems
Applied in thermocouples, pressure transmitters, and sensor protection tubes.
The high purity and smooth internal surface of Nickel 200 capillary tubes ensure accurate signal transmission and minimal contamination.
3️⃣ Medical and Pharmaceutical Equipment
Suitable for high-purity fluid delivery systems and analytical instruments due to its non-magnetic and non-toxic properties.
4️⃣ Power and Energy Sector
Used in nuclear and power generation systems for corrosion-resistant instrumentation tubing.
Maintains structural and chemical stability under high temperature and pressure.
5️⃣ Laboratory and Analytical Equipment
Ideal for gas chromatography, mass spectrometry, and fluid sampling lines, offering accurate flow control and resistance to contamination.
Summary
N02200 (Nickel 200) capillary tubes are preferred for corrosive, high-purity, and precision-control environments where excellent resistance to caustic agents and high conductivity are required.
