Dairy Bronze is a general term for the Nickel Silver Bronze Alloy C97600. This cast bronze alloy contains 63-67% Cu, 3.5-4.5 % Sn, 3-5% Pb, 3-9% Zn, 1.5% Fe, 19-21.5% Ni, 1% Mn, and 0.15% Si. C976 Dairy Bronze has a relatively high machinability rating of 70. The term “Dairy Bronze” is derived from one
Application: Butterfly Valve Stem Bushings Butterfly valves are used to control and isolate the flow of liquids. The controlling method uses a disc which pivots on a stem. These types of valves are used extensively in the oil and gas industry. Many of these valves are located in sub sea environments which exposes the valve
Application: Take Up Idler Bushings – Heavy Duty Earth Moving Equipment Idler bushings are subject to abrasive wear, deformation, and contamination. Replacing a worn Idler Bushing can take a shovel out of service and cost thousands of dollars in lost production. For these reasons, maximizing service life of the component is absolutely crucial. C86300 Manganese
Often we receive requests for various Aluminum Bronze Alloys that reference a specification our customers might be unfamiliar with. We have created a cross reference table to help you understand the various alloys. Use the below table to find out which cast aluminum bronze alloy your required specification is designating. Also included in the table
It is well known that the Aluminum Bronze families of alloys offer distinct advantages in a number of areas. These attributes include higher mechanical properties, excellent anti corrosive abilities, along with good fatigue and anti-galling strengths. For the most part these advantages were obtained with the tradeoff of a lower machinability rating. This lower machinability rating
Naval Brass refers to a copper alloy of around 59% Copper 40% Zinc and 1% Tin with a trace amount of Lead. This alloy falls into the subfamily for Brasses known as Alpha Beta or Duplex Brasses. These Alpha Beta Brasses are generally harder and stronger than other non-Alpha Beta Brasses. As its name implies,
If your application demands a bearing material able to withstand heavy loads, C86300 Manganese Bronze may be your alloy of choice. Also known as SAE430B, or just 430B for short, C863 is tough and corrosion resistant. This alloy is ideal for low speed applications that require outstanding wear characteristics. Keep in mind that this alloy
The Bronze Alloy of choice for worm gears is C90700 (SAE65) High Tin Bronze. This has been the predominant bronze alloy for gear manufacturing throughout the 20th century, and continues to prevail today. But what is it that makes C907 such a superior alloy for this application? To develop a clearer understanding of this trend,
It seems like almost every day we will get a phone call in our office from a confused customer concerning bronze casting processes. In 1911 we began as a bronze foundry and through the years as a casting manufacturer we have become the experts in the various bronze casting methods. Hopefully this article will help
