Nickel Alloy 200 Pipes and Tubes Price Guide

What Determines the Price of Nickel 200 Pipe

Nickel 200 Pipes and Tubes

The price of Nickel 200 pipe moves with six factors, and any two of them changing shifts the final quote:

  • Nickel raw material rate. Nickel trades on the London Metal Exchange, and the alloy's 99% nickel content means the pipe price tracks LME nickel closely. A daily LME swing of 3 - 4% is common and impacts the quoted price.
  • Product form. Seamless pipe costs more than ERW or welded pipe of the same size, since seamless production uses a solid billet pierced and drawn rather than a strip rolled and welded.
  • Schedule and wall thickness. A heavier wall means more material per meter, which raises the per-meter cost even though the per-kg rate stays the same.
  • Size range. Small bore (below 1 inch) and very large bore (above 24 inches) carry a premium over mid-range sizes due to tooling and mill run economics.
  • Length and cutting requirements. Random-length runs are cheaper than pipe cut to a fixed, certified length, since cutting and requalifying the ends adds a labor step.
  • Testing and certification. Third-party inspection, hydrostatic testing, positive material identification (PMI), and mill test certificates each add a line item to the final invoice.

Indicative Price Range

The table below gives a global indicative range for Nickel 200 pipe and tube, based on current market benchmarks. These figures fluctuate alongside the LME nickel rate and should not be read as a fixed quote.

Product Indicative Range (USD/Ton)
Nickel 200 Seamless Pipe 42,000 - 43,500
Nickel 200 ERW/Welded Pipe 41,000 - 42,500
Nickel 200 Seamless Tube 43,000 - 44,500

At these levels, a kilogram of Nickel 200 seamless pipe works out to roughly USD 42-43.50 before adding schedule-specific fabrication, testing, and freight costs. Sangeeta Metal converts this into a landed price for the buyer's location and delivery terms once the enquiry specifies size, schedule, quantity, and required certification.

Placing an Enquiry

Send the NB size, schedule, length, form (pipe or tube, seamless or welded), and quantity required, along with any testing standard the end application requires. We’ll confirm current mill availability and get back to you with a quote on these details, covering ex-stock and indent (mill-order) lead times where the requirement runs outside current inventory.

For orders where the size or schedule falls outside the standard chart above, such as a sub-1/2 inch capillary tube or NB above 24 inches in welded form, share the drawing. Sangeeta Metal checks the dimensions against mill capability before quoting, so the buyer gets a workable lead time alongside the price.
