Monel alloy, also known as nickel alloy, is an alloy made of metal nickel as a matrix with copper, iron, manganese and other elements added. Monel alloy has good corrosion resistance and is silvery white, which is suitable for edge wire material.

Monel is a group of nickel alloys, primarily composed of nickel (from 52 to 67%) and copper, with small amounts of iron, manganese, carbon, and silicon. Alloys with copper contents 60% or more are called cupronickel. Stronger than pure nickel, Monel alloys are resistant to corrosion by many aggressive agents, including rapidly flowing seawater. They can be fabricated readily by hot- and cold-working, machining, and welding.
