ASTM B148 C95500 Aluminum Bronze

Product Description

ASTM B148 C95800 Bronze is a high-strength alloy known for its exceptional resistance to sliding friction, excellent machinability, and strong welding capabilities. It exhibits superior corrosion resistance in both atmospheric and freshwater environments. This alloy is highly ductile, making it ideal for moderate to light-duty applications. Commonly used in bushings and bearings, it boasts excellent "seating" properties. While softer compared to other aluminum bronzes, it offers impressive wear resistance, impact and fatigue strength, and high elongation. Additionally, it is easy to machine and provides outstanding corrosion resistance.

 

 

ASTM B148 Standard

ASTM B148 covers the requirements for aluminum bronze sand castings, including chemical composition, mechanical properties, and testing methods. C95500 is one of the specific alloys covered under this standard.

 

Features of C95500 Aluminum Bronze

• Composition

Copper (Cu): Primary base metal.

Aluminum (Al): Typically 10-11.5%, providing strength and corrosion resistance.

Iron (Fe): Around 3-5%, enhancing strength and wear resistance.

Nickel (Ni): Approximately 3-5.5%, improving corrosion resistance and mechanical properties.

Manganese (Mn): Up to 1.5%, aiding in deoxidation and improving workability.

 

• Mechanical properties of ASTM B148 C95800 Bronze

Tensile strength (Mpa): 586

Yield strength (Mpa): 241

Elongation rate (%): 18

Hardness (HB): 159

 

• Corrosion Resistance

Excellent resistance to seawater, acids, and other corrosive environments.

Ideal for marine applications such as propellers, pumps, and valves.

 

• Wear Resistance

High resistance to wear and galling, making it suitable for bushings, bearings, and gears.

 

• Casting and Machining

Suitable for sand casting due to its fluidity and low shrinkage.

Machinable but requires sharp tools and proper techniques due to its toughness.

 

Heat Treatment

C95500 can be heat-treated to enhance its mechanical properties. Common heat treatment processes include:

• Solution Annealing: Improves ductility and toughness.
• Aging: Increases strength and hardness.

 

Product Specification And Size Range

• Rod: diameter 6-500mm, length 0.5-30m;
• Plate: thickness 0.5-80mm, length 1-6 meters, width 0.5-3m
• Tube: Outer diameter 6-530mm, wall thickness 0.5-50mm, length 1-12m;
• Other: Forgings, bars, sizes can be zero cut, strips, rings, wires, flanges, etc. can be produced according to customer requirements
