With the growing demand for DFARS metals, contractors capable of meeting DFARS material requirements stand to gain a major competitive edge. Learn more about the types of DFARS-compliant materials and what a reputable supplier looks like. What Is DFARS-Compliant Material? DFARS (Defense Federal Acquisition Regulation Supplement) is a set of restrictions on certain types of metals allowed on DoD projects. These restrictions extend to any contractor tasked with supplying or manufacturing specialized metals for sensitive military applications. DFARS also sets rigorous cybersecurity standards for sensitive defense-related data. There isn't a single comprehensive list of DFARS metals. Rather, meeting DFARS regulations in full also requires following numerous separate conditions that are subject to change. The primary conditions are: Metal and Alloy Type: Only specific types of metals and alloys are covered by DFARS compliance standards. Alloying Content: DFARS further sets standards for each metal's ratio of alloying elements, so the alloying content of compliant metals must fall within accepted limits. Melting Method and Country of Origin: The melting method for a given metal and the location of the melting process are also governed by DFARS. Only metals from specific countries are acceptable sources of DFARS metals. DoD contractors must heed strict purchase order requirements that often invoke an extensive list of DFARS regulations. One of the most common requirements is DFARS Clause 252.225-7009, "Restriction on Acquisition of Certain Articles Containing Metals." This clause requires that all stainless steel, titanium, and other “Metals” be melted in the United States or one of several "Qualifying Countries." DFARS Approved Countries Below is a current list of Qualifying DFARS Approved Countries for 2024: Australia Austria Belgium Canada Czech Republic Denmark Egypt Estonia Finland France Germany Greece Israel Italy Japan Latvia Luxembourg Netherlands Norway Poland Portugal Slovenia Spain Sweden Switzerland Turkey United Kingdom of Great Britain Northern Ireland Types of DFARS Metals & Alloys DFARS regulations cover the following metals and alloys as well as other metals: Steel Titanium and titanium alloys Zirconium and zirconium alloys Nickel and iron-nickel alloys Cobalt base alloys Why Choose Continental Steel & Tube for Your DFARS Needs?

EXPLORING THE VERSATILE APPLICATIONS OF NICKEL ALLOY IN VARIOUS INDUSTRIES Nickel alloys have many beneficial properties. They play a crucial role in multiple industries. As a member of the iron group, the material is ductile, hard, malleable, and easy to work with. It’s also a fairly good conductor of electricity and heat and can resist corrosion at high temperatures, making it a good choice for aerospace, electrical, and chemical processing applications. Depending on the needs of a particular project, nickel alloys come in a variety of stock forms and shapes, including sheet, coil, & plate. At Continental Steel & Tube Company, we are a specialty supplier of all forms and grades of nickel. Whether you require nickel tube, pipe, sheet, bar, wire, plate, fittings, or more, we have the right solution for you. Understanding the Grades of Nickel and Nickel Alloys Nickel 200 and 201 are considered commercially pure nickel grades. This means that they contain at least 99% nickel, with the other 1% or less consisting of iron, copper, manganese, carbon, and other metals. Nickel 200. This is the most commonly used of the commercially pure nickel alloy grades. Many industries use Nickel 200 and 201 alloys because of its superior thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance against caustic alkalis, and mechanical properties. Other favorable properties of Nickel 200 include ideal magnetostrictive properties and minimal electrical resistivity. Nickel 201. Nickel 201 is similar to Nickel 200 but with a lower carbon content (0.02% max). This slight modification provides improved resistance to graphitization at elevated temperatures, making it suitable for applications where high-temperature and corrosion resistance are required. Nickel Alloys. In addition to these two types of pure nickel, there are various types of nickel alloys, including: Alloy 20 155 188 255 Monel® 400 Inconel® 600 Inconel® 601 Inconel® 617 Inconel® 625 Inconel® 718 Incoloy® 800H/HT Incoloy® 825 A286 / A-286 Hastelloy® C22 / C-22 Hastelloy® C276 / C-276 Hastelloy® X Inconel® X-750 Invar® 36 Invar® 42 Haynes® 25 / L-605 Monel ® K-500 Rene® 41 Waspaloy® Alloy 6B Custom 455 Hastelloy® B3 Kovar Applications of Nickel Plates, Sheets, and Coils in Different Industries Numerous applications and industries rely on nickel plates and other forms of nickel alloy.
