Nickel 200/201
Datum use Nickel 200/201 grade, which conforms to the ASTM B162 standard. It’s commercially pure (99.6% and higher) with good mechanical properties, and is resistant to a range of corrosive media. Due to its ability to withstand high temperatures and its conductivity, Nickel is often used as a plating for softer metals and is commonly used to provide hard-wearing plating for components, battery connectors and tags for the electronics industry.
