B8 | Bronze Copper Alloy Tin

Available formats: Bars, Tubes, Caps, Plates and Plates.

features

Bronze alloys such as phosphorous B8 such as C52100, also known as C521, consist of copper with 0.50? 11.00% of tin and 0.01? 0.35% of phosphorus.

 

Tin increases corrosion resistance and alloy strength. Phosphorus increases the wear resistance and rigidity of the alloy. These
Alloys are notable for their toughness, strength, low coefficient of friction and fine grain.

 

CuSn8 is used for elastic applications where high strength and wear resistance are required. Special features, such as extra-fine particle size or thermal-mechanical stress relief, improve mechanical properties and provide greater strength and greater malleability.

Applications

Architecture: bridge support plates.

Building: Thermostat

Consumer: Bellows. Energy conductor for electrosurgical pencil.

Electric: Miniaturized connectors, contact springs, Relais springs, electronic connectors, electrical connectors, cold head parts, electrical flex contact sheets, wire brushes, switch parts, fuse clips.

Fasteners: cotter pins, fasteners, heavy duty, lock washers.

Industrial: cold head parts, thrust bearings, reinforcement wire, pneumatic hammers, paper industry, pipe, drilling equipment, clutch discs, welding wire, diaphragms, mixer bar, bellows, springs, helical extension, helical torsion, clips , gears, pinions, textile machinery, perforated blades, chemical hardware, heavy duty, sleeve bushings.
