Cupronickels are considered non-magnetic. They have a very low magnetic permeability of less than 1.01.
Magnetic permeability indicates how easily an external magnetic field can create a force of attraction in the metal. On this measure, cupronickels such as Hiduron® 130 (DTD 900/4805, 2.1504) count as non-magnetic - a useful property for valves, sensors and connectors.
No. Cupronickels are considered non-magnetic, with a very low magnetic permeability of less than 1.01. That means an external magnetic field creates almost no force of attraction in the metal, which is a useful, predictable property rather than a borderline case.
Non-magnetic behaviour is useful wherever a magnetic field would interfere with a component's function or with nearby instruments - for example in sensors, valves and connectors, where a magnetic material could disturb readings or attract stray magnetic particles in a working fluid.
No. Hiduron 130, a cupronickel alloy, shares the non-magnetic behaviour common to the cupronickel family, with a magnetic permeability below 1.01. This makes it, like other cupronickels, a suitable choice where magnetic interference needs to be avoided.
