Aluminum Bronze C61400
UNS C61400
Description
Aluminum Bronze C61400 is a nickel-free aluminum bronze where its unique combined properties of medium strength, excellent corrosion resistance in salt water. Besides, it possesses higher ductility than the nickel aluminum bronzes and can be cold worked to significantly enhance the mechanical properties. And C61400 maintains its properties at low temperatures for cryogenic temperatures. These excellent properties make it a popular choice for many commercial and marine applications.
