| Bronze A copper tin based alloy offering strength and hardness for many engineering applications. Fabricast maintains large stocks of alloys within the Phosphor Bronze, Aluminium Bronze and popular SAE660 ranges. Material is available in many forms and includes:- |
| Phosphor Bronze (BS1400 BSEN1982) Continuous Cast Bar PB1 (CC481K) High tin alloy used in load bearing applications where strength is generally required. Can be used for bearings, gear wheels, springs and general engineering mechanical requirements PB2 (CC483K) Higher tin content than PB1 improving wear resistance. Used for gears and general bearings where rigidity is required LG2 (CC491K) Lead based alloy offering a combination of corrosion resistance and moderate strength with good machinability. Applications include valves, pumps, bearings and marine based products For further details on this range and stock availability, please contact Fabricast’s Technical Support Team. |
Phosphor Bronze (PB102 BSEN12163) Extruded/Drawn Bar PB102 (CW481K) |
| Phosphor Bronze (BSEN1652/3) Plate PB102 (CW451K) Low tin based alloy providing high strength and corrosion resistance/fatigue. Used for condenser tube plates and vessels where higher strength and corrosion resistance than pure copper is required. For further details on this range and stock availability, please contact Fabricast’s Technical Support Team. |
| SAE660 (ASTM B271 1996A C93200) Medium hard material with reasonable high abrasion resistance and moderate emergency running properties. Suitable for normally stressed sliding bearing bushes and brasses when shafts of general structural steels as well as surface hardened steel are used. Employed for certain locomotive axle bearing bushes, coupling rod bearings and sliding bearing bushes for general machine construction. Resistant to seawater. Fabricast stocks an extensive range of SAE660 sizes in both cored and solid bar form, with a cut to size facility. Please ask our sales team for a full stock sheet. |
| Aluminium Bronze Rounds, Sections and Plates Copper based alloy with added Aluminium providing excellent corrosion resistance with high strength and offering good weldability. Used for valve and pump components, tube plates and marine condensers. For further details, please contact Fabricast’s Technical Support Team. |
