Aluminum bronzes are used for their combination of high strength, excellent corrosion and wear resistance with high resistance to oxidation and good strength at elevated temperatures.Aluminum bronze alloys are used in marine hardware, shafts, and pump and valve components for handling seawater, sour mine waters, non-oxidizing acids, and industrial process fluids. They are also used in applications such as heavy duty sleeve bearings and machine tool ways. Aluminum bronze castings have exceptional corrosion resistance, high strength, toughness, and wear resistance. Not to mention their good casting and welding characteristics.
Typical Uses This provides high yield and tensile strength, good ductility, weldability and exceptional resistance to wear, fatigue and deformation under shock or overload. Typical applications include bearings, gears, valve components, wearplate and wearstrip. Typical application is Pickling Hooks, Bearings, Pawl, Worm Gears, Machine Parts, Spur Gears, Heavily Loaded Worm Gears, Pump Parts, Landing Gear Parts, Valve Bodies, Valve Guides, Valve Seats, Bearing Segments for the Steel Industry, Pressure Blocks for the Steel Industry, High Strength Clamps, Bushings, Valves, Gears, Nuts, Large Hold Down Screws, Ship Building, Covers for Marine Hardware, in oil and chemical industry as valve fittings, pump rods, bolts, propellers, propeller shafts, spark plug bodies, heavy duty bearings, gear wheels, worm wheels, valve seats, pinions and non-sparking tools etc.
