Key Features
A high strength hybrid alloy which exhibits
the corrosion resistance of cupro nickel
combined with the high strength of aluminium bronze.
Can be precipitation hardened to achieve tensile properties close to those of beryllium copper.
Typical Uses
Marine:
The excellent corrosion resistance of this alloy and non-susceptibility to hydrogen embrittlement,
combined with high strength makes it an ideal
material for marine fasteners.
It is also used for lead
connectors and stab plates. The alloy is utilised in many Naval Marine applications such as winches,
actuator values, sea water valves and general
engineering.
Aerospace:
The alloy is also used in aerospace for
landing gear bushes and sleeves which utilizes the
excellent wear resistance.
Automotive:
It can be used in high
performance automotive applications for valve guides and valve seats.
