Monel K-500 ERNiCu-7 Bare Wire
AWS A5.14 solid nickel-copper filler for GTAW and GMAW.
Request Availability →Monel K-500 Welding Wire
ERNiCu-7 bare wire and ENiCu-7 electrodes for joining Monel K-500, 400 and dissimilar steel fabrications.
Aging Sets the Strength
Aluminium and titanium in this Monel K-500 welding wire precipitate during the aging cycle, so yield lands near three times the Monel 400 figure.
Non-Magnetic by Nature
Moreover, permeability in this Monel K-500 welding wire stays near unity, which keeps survey and instrument parts reading clean.
Sour Service Under a Cap
Furthermore, we hold this Monel K-500 welding wire to the 35 HRC ceiling that NACE MR0175 sets for H2S-bearing duty.
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
About Monel K-500 Welding Wire
Monel K-500 welding wire covers the fillers classified for joining UNS N05500 and N04400 base metal. This Monel K-500 welding wire runs as ERNiCu-7 per AWS A5.14 in bare form. Its covered electrode runs as ENiCu-7 per AWS A5.11.
We supply Monel K-500 welding wire as straight TIG rods, wound MIG spools and sealed electrode packs. The deposit matches the parent metal in corrosion behaviour, yet it cannot be aged, so a joint made with this Monel K-500 welding wire is designed below the aged parent strength.
Meanwhile, the base-metal chemistry behind this Monel K-500 welding wire sits on our Monel K-500 material page for weld procedure work.
PRODUCT FEATURES
Key Features of Monel K-500 Welding Wire
Monel K-500 welding wire arrives in UNS N05500, the age-hardenable nickel-copper alloy that carries aluminium and titanium in its balance. We provide ASTM B865 and ASME SB865 welding wire as ERNiCu-7 bare wire, TIG rods and MIG spools for marine yards, sour-gas tool shops and chemical plant. Every Monel K-500 welding wire order carries heat-number traceability, EN 10204 3.1 mill test reports and full export documentation.

TECHNICAL INFORMATION
Technical Specifications
Detailed technical information including chemical composition, mechanical properties, standards and available dimensions.
Chemical Composition
UNS N05500 carries the same nickel balance as the 400 grade and adds aluminium at 2.30% to 3.15% together with titanium at 0.35% to 0.85%. Consequently, this welding wire draws its strength from a controlled aging cycle rather than from a drawing pass. Besides, the copper window runs from 27.0% to 33.0%.
For the full element-by-element limit set, open the composition breakdown held on the Monel K-500 material page for this welding wire.
Mechanical Properties
The all-weld-metal figures below summarize published ERNiCu-7 and ENiCu-7 classification data for Monel K-500 welding wire. Note that AWS does not publish yield strength as a classified property for these fillers.
| Product (all-weld metal) | Tensile Strength | Yield Strength (0.2%) | Elongation |
|---|---|---|---|
| ERNiCu-7 bare wire (AWS A5.14) | Approx. 530 MPa (77 ksi), typical | Approx. 360 MPa (53 ksi), typical | Approx. 34%, typical |
| ENiCu-7 covered electrode (AWS A5.11) | 480–550 MPa (70–80 ksi), typical | 310–380 MPa (45–55 ksi), typical | 30–45%, typical |
- AWS sets a 480 MPa (70 ksi) minimum tensile and a 30% minimum elongation on the ENiCu-7 class, and the deposit cannot be aged, so a K-500 joint never reaches aged parent strength.
Physical Properties
The identification data below applies to every ERNiCu-7 and ENiCu-7 delivery for this Monel K-500 welding wire.
| Property | Value |
