Why this combination

Why Cupro-Nickel 90/10 in pipes

Standard for seawater pipingNatural biofouling resistanceIron addition for erosion resistanceGood weldability and brazability

Copper-nickel naturally resists marine fouling and seawater corrosion at moderate velocities, which is why navies and shipyards use it widely.

Velocity limits apply; higher-velocity systems may use super duplex instead.
