There are many types of bronze, and different grades of bronze are used in different fields due to their unique properties.
Below are some of the best-selling bronze grades in the market, as well as their main features and applications:
Tin Bronze
Tin bronze is a copper-tin alloy with good corrosion resistance, wear resistance and flexibility.
QSn6-6-3: Widely used in the manufacture of springs, diaphragms and other elastic components, as well as wear-resistant parts.
QSn4-3: It has good wear resistance and electrical conductivity, and is commonly used in the manufacture of bearings, gears and springs.
Phosphor Bronze
Phosphor bronze is made by adding phosphorus element to tin bronze, which has higher strength and elastic limit.
QSnP2.5-5-5: Commonly used in the manufacture of springs, diaphragms, electrical contacts, etc.
QSnP1.5-6-6: It has good abrasion and corrosion resistance, and is often used in the manufacture of bearings and gears.
Aluminum Bronze
Aluminum bronze has high strength, wear resistance and corrosion resistance.
QAl9-2: Good wear resistance and heat resistance, commonly used in the manufacture of bearings, gears, pump blades, etc.
QAl10-3-1.5: with high strength and wear resistance, commonly used in the manufacture of bushings, axial tile ring, gears, etc..
Beryllium Bronze
Beryllium bronze has extremely high strength, elastic limit and electrical conductivity.
QBe2.5: Widely used in the manufacture of springs, electrical contacts, molds and so on.
Considerations for Selecting Bronze Grades
Performance requirements: According to the use of the environment and functional requirements of the product, select the appropriate performance of the bronze grade.
Cost control: different grades of bronze prices are different, should choose the most cost-effective grade.
Processing performance: consider the processing performance of bronze, such as cutting, welding, etc..
Stability of supply: choose a stable supply of bronze grades to ensure the continuity of production.
