Corrosion Resistant Copper Nickel is used for piping, heat exchangers and condensers in seawater systems as well as marine hardware, and sometimes for the propellers, crankshafts and hulls of premium tugboats, fishing boats and other working boats. The Copper Nickel is used in thermocouples, and resistors whose resistance is stable across changes in temperature contain the 55% copper-45% nickel alloy constantan. The Copper Nickel is resistant to corrosion in seawater, because its electrode potential is adjusted to be neutral with regard to seawater. The Corrosion Resistant Copper Nickel contains strengthening elements, such as iron and manganese.
