C62300 Aluminum Bronze Alloy
C62300 aluminum bronze is a wrought alloy. It is notable for its high wear and corrosion resistance, and it also has high strength, resists acid, and is non-sparking.
C62300 is often used for fasteners and in industrial applications. Common applications include:
- Bronze Bearing Races
- Bronze Bearings
- Bronze Bushings
- Bronze Cams
- Bronze Nuts & Bolts
- Bronze Pump Rods
- Bronze Valve Stems
- Bronze Worm Gears
Diversified Bronze has solid and cored C62300 aluminum bronze bars in 144" lengths. Other lengths and non-standard sizes are available.
Technical details
C62300 is made up of 82.2-89.5% copper, 8.5-11.0% aluminum, and 2.0-4.0% iron. The best welding techniques include:
- Brazing
- Butt
