Q: Is Monel better than stainless steel?
A: Monel bolts will offer improved resistance to saltwater over stainless steel. As a nickel alloy, Monel will provide much better general corrosion resistance as well. Monel is also known for its unmatched resistance to hydrofluoric acid which will even corrode pure tantalum.
In terms of strength, there are many grades of stainless steel. Some of them are even cold-worked for added strength. So to compare Monel to stainless steel would be difficult without knowing the specific grade of stainless steel and its specifications. For reference, Monel 400 will provide slightly improved strength over standard 316 bolts, whereas Monel K500 will be over double the strength.
