Leaded Bronze

C92200 Leaded Tin Bronze is a versatile copper alloy known for its enhanced machinability and wear resistance due to the addition of tin and lead. This alloy is characterized by its excellent corrosion resistance, ease of fabrication, and ability to maintain dimensional stability. It is commonly used in applications that require self-lubricating properties, such as in the production of gears, bearings, bushings, and other mechanical components where resistance to wear and good electrical and thermal conductivity are desired.

C66100 Leaded Silicon Bronze is a copper-based alloy that incorporates silicon and lead, offering improved machinability and bearing properties. The addition of lead enhances the alloy's lubricity and ease of machining, making it ideal for applications such as bearing bushes, gears, and other components that require self-lubricating and anti-seize properties. Additionally, this alloy provides good corrosion resistance and strength, which is beneficial in marine, automotive, and general engineering applications.

Nickel Bearing C31600 is composed of approximately 89% copper, 8% zinc, and 2% lead, but also contains 1% nickel. This alloy combines the natural corrosion resistance and machinability of C31400 with a higher tensile and yield strength resulting from the controlled addition of nickel.

Leaded Commercial Bronze C31400 combines the natural corrosion resistance of C22000 with the machinability typical of leaded brasses. Like C22000. it is an alpha brass nominally composed of 89% copper and 9% zinc, but it also contains approximately 2% lead to impart free-cutting characteristics.
