We are Riddhi Siddhi Impex, a Mumbai-based Nickel 201 Strips manufacturer and supplier, established in 2002. Our own slitting lines produce low-carbon commercially pure nickel strip to ASTM B162 / ASME SB-162, from 0.03 mm to 5 mm thick. Our ISO 9001, 14001, and 45001-certified company keeps a ready stock, holds a monthly supply capacity of 400-500 tonnes, and issues EN 10204 Type 3.1 / 3.2 certificates on request.
Nickel 201 strips are narrow cold-rolled lengths of low-carbon commercially pure nickel, slit from master coil for presswork, winding, and forming. Carbon is at 0.02% maximum, against 0.15% in Nickel 200, so UNS N02201 keeps its ductility above 315 °C, where the standard-carbon grade graphitises and cracks. The alloy holds 99.0% minimum nickel, withstands sodium hydroxide at any concentration, and moves heat and current more freely than most engineering alloys. These Nickel Strips are used in heat exchangers and chemical processing units.
As a reliable Nickel 201 strip supplier, we cold-roll and slit every Ni 201 order on our own lines, then dispatch it annealed to ASTM B162 in widths from 3 mm to 2000 mm. Buyers choose from four surface finishes and four edge conditions, and each consignment carries a mill test certificate on request.
We provide ASTM B162 Nickel 201 strip in annealed soft condition, hot rolled or cold rolled, slit to order from ready Mumbai stock in the options below.
| Parameter | Details |
|---|---|
| Standard | ASTM B162 / ASME SB-162, AMS 5553 |
| Thickness | 0.03 mm to 5 mm |
| Width | 3 mm to 2000 mm |
| Width Tolerance | ±0.1 mm |
| Condition | Annealed (Soft) |
| Supply Forms | Hot Rolled (HR) and Cold Rolled (CR) |
| Surface Finish | BA (Bright Annealed), 2B, Matte, Matte PVC |
| Edge | Slit edge, Mill edge, Deburred edge, Round edge |
Carbon control separates this grade from every other commercially pure nickel strip. ASTM B162 caps the element at 0.02%, low enough to stop graphite from forming along grain boundaries in hot service.
| Element | Composition (%) |
|---|---|
| Nickel (Ni) | 99.0 min |
| Carbon (C) | 0.02 max |
| Manganese (Mn) | 0.35 max |
| Iron (Fe) | 0.40 max |
| Silicon (Si) | 0.35 max |
| Copper (Cu) | 0.25 max |
| Sulphur (S) | 0.01 max |
Annealed Alloy 201 Strips pair a 345 MPa minimum tensile strength with 40% elongation, so deep draws and tight coils form cleanly. Below 0.51 mm, B162 yield figures stay indicative.

These 4 industries use most of the Nickel Alloy 201 Strips. Each picking the grade where heat, caustic media, or conductivity closes off poor-quality strip options.
Caustic plants form evaporator heating surfaces, crystalliser internals, and dosing hardware from Ni 201 strip because commercially pure nickel resists sodium hydroxide across the full concentration range. Where evaporator walls run past 315 °C, the 0.02% carbon ceiling keeps welded seams ductile through years of thermal cycling.
Battery assemblers weld this strip into cell interconnects, busbar tabs, and lead wires. Resistance welds take cleanly. Current losses stay low due to conductivity well above stainless alternatives, and strip slit down to 3 mm feeds automated cell lines without any secondary trimming.
Heat exchanger fabricators wind fins, baffle liners, and sealing elements from Low Carbon Nickel Strips for duty between 315 °C and roughly 600 °C. Standard-carbon nickel embrittles across that band. Grain boundaries in Nickel 201 stay graphite-free, so components survive repeated shutdown and restart cycles.
Chemical processors order Nickel 201 winding strip for plant handling dry chlorine, dry fluorine, and neutral or alkaline salt streams. Pitting stays absent in these media. The annealed temper folds into reactor linings, diaphragms, and gasket windings without cracking, so fabricators finish lining work with fewer rejected panels.

Nickel 201 Strips price in India runs from about ₹3,000-₹5,000 per kg, roughly $36 to $60 per kg for export buyers. Rates follow LME nickel and move with thickness, width, finish, and order quantity; wholesale volumes earn discounts. WhatsApp your size list for today's slit-width rate.
We slit Nickel 201 strips from 0.03 mm to 5 mm thick, in widths from 3 mm through 2000 mm, holding ±0.1 mm on width.
Nickel 201 strips differ from Nickel 200 strips in carbon, 0.02% maximum against 0.15%. That gap lets 201 serve continuously above 315 °C, where 200 can't follow.
Ni201 strips conform to ASTM B162, matched by ASME SB-162 for boiler and pressure work, with AMS 5553 available on aerospace supply.
Nickel 201 strips can handle continuous duty above 315 °C and stay serviceable to around 600 °C, because the low carbon limit blocks grain-boundary graphite formation.
Available finishes on Nickel 201 strips are BA, 2B, Matte, Matte PVC, paired with slit, mill, deburred, or round edges.
Yes, we issue EN 10204 Type 3.1 or 3.2 mill test certificates on request with every Nickel 201 strip order, and TDS documentation is also available.
You can buy Nickel 201 strips in India directly from us at Riddhi Siddhi Impex. We manufacture the strips in Mumbai, hold ready stock, and export worldwide as a supplier, exporter, and stockist. Phone or WhatsApp our team and receive a quotation within 24 hours.
