Monel K-500 is promptly fabricated by the standard business methodology. Welding alloy K-500 is best expert by the gas-tungsten-arc welding process. It is suggested that Monel K-500 be annealed when it is welded and that any weldments be pushed relieved prior to aging. Heavy machining of this alloy is best proficient when the material is in the tempered condition or hot-worked and extinguished conditioned.
Age-hardened material however can be complete machined to close resilience and fine finishes. In this manner, the recommended practice is to machine somewhat larger than usual, age-harden, then complete to size. During aging, a slight lasting withdrawal happens, yet little war page happens as a result of the low temperatures and slow cooling rates included. The greater part of the standard welding methods might be utilized with Alloy K-500. Be that as it may, it is best to weld with the alloy in the annealed condition and the completed weldments should then be stress-relief annealed. Introduction to temperatures in the age-hardening scope (900 F to 1100 F) should be evaded with the exception of when the last age-hardening treatment is to be an expert.
