Corrosion-Resistant CuNi10 Bar for Offshore Structures
Our CuNi10 bar is a game-changer for offshore structures, built to tackle the brutal conditions of the open sea. This copper-nickel alloy, with 10% nickel and often a splash of iron (CuNi10Fe), is our top pick for marine projects where corrosion resistance and durability are non-negotiable.
The star feature of CuNi10 bar is its ability to stand up to seawater like a champ. Whether it’s piping, valves, fittings, or heat exchangers on offshore platforms, this alloy shrugs off corrosion in salty, harsh environments where other materials would rust away. It’s a go-to for shipbuilding, oil rigs, and desalination plants, keeping systems running smoothly without constant repairs.
Beyond its corrosion-fighting superpowers, CuNi10 bar is versatile and reliable. It’s got solid electrical conductivity—around 20% IACS—making it useful for marine electrical systems, and it’s stable up to 400°C, perfect for heat exchangers in offshore setups. Its moderate mechanical strength ensures it can handle the stresses of marine environments without cracking under pressure.
We love how easy this bar is to work with. Its excellent formability means you can machine, weld, or shape it into whatever your offshore project needs—custom bars, rods, or plates. Got a specific design in mind? We can tweak the dimensions or alloy specs to fit your exact requirements, making fabrication a breeze.

The industry’s leaning toward materials that are tough, sustainable, and cost-effective, and CuNi10 bar nails it. It’s fully recyclable, which is a big win for eco-friendly projects, and its long lifespan means less waste and fewer replacements. With offshore industries like oil and gas, wind energy, and desalination growing fast, demand for corrosion-resistant materials like CuNi10 is surging. Plus, as energy efficiency becomes a priority, this bar’s reliability in heat exchangers supports greener marine systems.
Compared to other materials, CuNi10 bar shines. Pure copper’s great for conductivity but corrodes quickly in seawater. CuNi30Mn offers better thermal stability and corrosion resistance but at a higher cost and lower conductivity, making CuNi10 a cost-effective choice for offshore applications. Stainless steel’s strong but doesn’t match CuNi10’s seawater resistance or formability. This bar hits the sweet spot for marine durability.
We craft our CuNi10 bar to meet strict standards like ISO 9001, so you’re getting quality you can count on every time. Whether you’re building offshore platforms or marine heat exchangers, this bar’s ready to perform. Need a custom solution? Let us know, and we’ll make it happen.
