Copper Nickel wire is employed for sea water condenser systems and in desalination plants, as well as pipe work in chemical plants. It is being increasingly employed for brake and hydraulic suspension systems and cooling systems in cars and commercial vehicles. It is commonly used for the manufacture of coins, medals and other semi valuable applications. It is also used in cooling circuits, ammunition, sea water corrosion-resistant assemblies and condenser tubes. The good resistance to biofouling and sea water corrosion resistance of the copper nickel alloys have lead to its use in applications such as cladding for ships' hulls, legs of oil rig platforms and sea water intake screens.
