What is the materials of C95800?
C95800 is an aluminum bronze alloy. Its main components include copper, aluminum, nickel, and a small amount of elements such as iron, manganese, and silicon. The contents of various elements are approximately as follows:
- Copper (Cu): content ≥ 78.0%;
- Lead (Pb): ≤ 0.02%;
- Iron (Fe): 3.5 - 4.5%;
- Nickel + cobalt (Ni + Co): 4.0 - 5.0%;
- Aluminum (Al): 8.5 - 9.5%;
- Manganese (Mn): 0.8 - 1.5%;
- Silicon (Si): ≤ 0.05%.
The aluminum bronze C95800 has the following characteristics:
- High strength: It has relatively high strength and is often used in manufacturing parts with high strength requirements, such as screws, nuts, copper sleeves, sealing rings, etc.
- Good wear resistance: The prominent feature is its good wear resistance and can be used in manufacturing parts that require wear resistance.
- Corrosion resistance: It has good resistance to various corrosive media such as seawater, acids, and alkalis. It is widely used in fields such as marine engineering and chemical equipment. For example, it can be used to manufacture ship propellers, ship shafts, rudders, and pumps, valves, pipes and other components in chemical equipment.
- Non-sparking property: It will not produce sparks under impact and can be used as a non-sparking tool material.
- Excellent thermal conductivity and stiffness: It has excellent thermal conductivity and stable stiffness and has become a new type of mold material. For example, when stretching and rolling stainless steel plate heat exchangers, there will be no problems such as sticking to the mold or scratching the workpiece.
- Machinability: It can be formed through processes such as forging, casting, and machining to make various complex parts. It can also be heat-treated to further improve its performance.
In addition, the C95800 aluminum bronze alloy is relatively inexpensive and can partly replace some expensive metal materials to a certain extent, such as replacing tin bronze, stainless steel, nickel-based alloys, etc. This also makes it play an important role in civil and military industries.
