OSTI ID:6489890
MONEL Alloy 400 has provided satisfactory corrosion protection in the splash zone of drilling rigs. Attachment of the sheathing can be, by mechanical means, adhesive bonding or welding. 3 or 5 mm thick MONEL 400 sheaths are welded by mechanized MIG to the mild steel structures and have shown good resistance to physical damage as well as corrosion.
