Alumel is an alloy consisting of approximately 95% nickel, 2% aluminium, 2% manganese, and 1% silicon. This magnetic alloy is used to make the negative conductors of ANSI Type K (chromel-alumel) thermocouples and thermocouple extension wire.[1] Alumel is a registered trademark of Concept Alloys, Inc.[2]
