Continental Steel & Tube Company is a leading supplier of Nickel Alloy Ni-201, also known as Commercially Pure Nickel. This alloy stands out from Ni 200 due to its lower carbon content (.02% max), which enables its use in higher temperature applications exceeding 600°F.

We stock and distribute Nickel Alloy Ni-201 in a wide array of forms, including Rods, Bars, Pipes, Tubes, Plates, Sheets, Strips, Fittings, Forgings, and Wire. Rest assured, our products consistently meet or exceed stringent industry standards from ASTM, ASME, AMS, and ISO.
