Default monel screws

Brian,
Please do the research if you disagree. Stainless fasteners exhibit far
greater strength and fatigue resistance, which by the way is poor for the
whole nickel alloy family and depending on the alloy, exhibit every bit as
good resistance to corrosion. May I also point out that nickel alloys
fasteners are not always the best solution for corrosive and electrolytic
environments and that includes monel. So, assuming your application
qualifies for a nickel alloy solution, why in the world would you choose
monel, when SS is better and less expensive?

Strong AND corrosion-resistant!
I'm all ears! Bronze? Particular brasses? Not stainless nor alloy steel
nor mild steel certainly. Some aluminum alloys? possibly.
nickel alloys (other than monel??) Titanium??

Ezcellent? I don't think so. There are other materials far better for
both strength and corrosion resistance. There are reasons why they are
hard to find.

Has someone here an idea where to get screws from this excellent
material monel? Google-searches where not successful after all.

Thank you in advance,
