Monel 400 vibrating screen mesh (crimped) combines the construction of vibrating screen mesh (crimped) (ISO 4783 crimped) with the properties of UNS N04400 (2.4360): excellent resistance to seawater, hydrofluoric acid and alkalis, slightly magnetic, service to approx. +540 °C. This page summarizes the grade data, its behavior in filtration service, comparable alloys, and the specifications supplied.
Why Choose Monel 400 for Vibrating Screen Mesh (Crimped)
The marine and chemical-processing specialist alloy. For vibrating screen mesh (crimped), this matters when excellent resistance to seawater, hydrofluoric acid and alkalis is the controlling requirement.
Alloy Properties
| Grade designation | UNS N04400 (2.4360) |
|---|---|
| Magnetic response | Slightly magnetic |
| Service temperature | approx. +540 °C |
| Corrosion characteristic | Excellent resistance to seawater, hydrofluoric acid and alkalis |
Corrosion Behavior in Filtration Service
Nickel-family alloys are specified for vibrating screen mesh (crimped) when stainless is not enough: Monel 400 for seawater and hydrofluoric acid, Inconel 600 for oxidation at extreme temperature, Hastelloy C-276 for hot chlorides and mixed acids, titanium for chlorides with weight savings. Match the alloy to the specific chemistry — they are not interchangeable.
Cleaning & Compatibility
Special alloys tolerate aggressive cleaning chemistry, but confirm the specific acid/alkali against the alloy datasheet — e.g. Monel handles HF but not oxidizing nitric; titanium handles nitric but not HF. When welding elements into frames, use matching filler and inert-gas backing to preserve corrosion resistance at the joint.
