C65500
ASTM B96, ASTM B248, ASTM B98
The silicon bronze C65500 is a high strength, engineering alloy with having resistance against corrosion from fresh and salt water, acids, alkalies, salts and organic chemicals. The alloy is not suitable to be used with sulfides, nitric acid, acid chromates or oxidizing salts such as ferric chloride. The alloy possess strength, resilience and formability and is non-sparking, galling resistant and fatigue resistant.
The applications of C65500 include electrical conduit, pump shafts, valve stems, tie rods, fasteners, marine and pole-line hardware, nuts, bolts, screws, rivets, nails, bushings, screen cloth and wire.
Typical Uses :
- Electrical: Sculptures,Electrical,Pole Line Hardware,Motors,Rotor Bar
- Fasteners: Screws,Rivets,Burrs,Nuts,Nails,Cotter Pins,Clamps,Bolts,Hinges
- Industrial: Screen Cloth,Wear Plates,Screen Plates,Shafting,Wire,Welded Pressure Vessels,Oil Refinery Plumbing Tube,Bearing Plates,Butts
