CuNiFe

CuNiFe

(OP)
Hello,

I'm new to the site but have have reviewed threads within and see it is very helpful and well established source of information and advice.

I'm looking for a distributor of CuNiFe for existing projects. Also, since I'm not currently able to locate source, would also like to know possible replacement material.

I've heard that Arnokrome, Arnold Eng. is a good replacement. Are there other suppliers of CuNiFe and or other suitable replacement materials.

Thanks in advance

I used to make it for Western Electric, back in the dark ages.
Look at the Arnold material, there aren't really many options.  

Do you know anyone with a small rolling mill?  You could get a specialty caster if Ni alloys to cast some small ingots for you and then you could get them rolled.

OK, yes the technology is old.

Thanks

RE: CuNiFe

Old doesn't mean bad.  It may mean reliable and robust.  But in this case it also means hard to find.
