Product Description

CuZn9Pb2 – *********0 Lead Commercial Bronze Alloys, which is commonly named "Commercial Bronze", and it is a free machining brass with a higher electrical and thermal conductivity than that of standard free machining brass. C****0 combines the natural corrosion resistance of C****0 with the machinability typical of leaded brasses. Like C****0, it is an alpha brass nominally composed of *9% copper and 9% zinc, but it also contains abt. 2% lead in order to impart free-cutting characteristics. The relatively low zinc content of C****0 provides excellent corrosion resistance in potable water along with a pleasing golden color that matches C****0 hardware. Alloy C****0 is also suitable for outdoor use due to its resistance to stress corrosion cracking and to corrosion in general, but where the highest strength is not required.
