·  Power industry: Nickel pipe fittings are used to manufacture pipes for high-temperature and high-pressure equipment such as boilers and steam turbines.
·  Marine engineering: Monel alloy pipe fittings are widely used in seawater desalination, offshore platforms and other fields.
·  Food industry: Nickel pipe fittings are used to transport food-grade media and have good hygienic properties.
·  Nuclear industry: Nickel pipe fittings are used in the cooling system of nuclear reactors and require extremely high corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance.

Production process of nickel pipe fittings
The production process of nickel pipe fittings mainly includes the following steps:
·  Raw material preparation: Select nickel-based alloy raw materials that meet the requirements.
·  Melting: The nickel-based alloy raw materials are melted into ingots under vacuum or inert gas protection.
·  Forging: The ingot is heated to an appropriate temperature and forged to improve the material's structure.
·  Heat treatment: Forgings are heat treated to obtain the required mechanical properties.
·  Processing and forming: Forgings are processed into pipe fittings through turning, milling, drilling and other processing methods .
·  Surface treatment: Surface treatment of pipe fittings, such as polishing and passivation, is performed to improve their corrosion resistance and aesthetics.

Quality Control of Nickel Pipe Fittings
In order to ensure the quality of nickel pipe fittings, strict quality control is required during the production process. It mainly includes the following aspects:
·  Raw material inspection: inspect the chemical composition, mechanical properties, etc. of raw materials.
·  Process control: Strictly control the smelting, forging, heat treatment and other process.
·  Finished product inspection: Perform appearance inspection, dimension measurement, mechanical property testing, etc. on finished pipe fittings .
