bedra61760
Aluminum Bronze

Characteristics:
bedra61760 is an aluminum bronze alloy with added manganese and iron, which enhance mechanical strength and inhibit grain growth during hot working. This alloy combines high fatigue strength, excellent wear and abrasion resistance, along with good oxidation and corrosion resistance in seawater and other aggressive environments. It also demonstrates shock load resistance and non-sparking properties.
Typical applications:
bedra61760 is widely used in offshore and marine applications, as well as in the automotive and petrochemical industries, for engineering components such as bolts, nuts, bearing races, bearings, bushings, gears, pump parts, valve guides, valve seats, valve bodies, and marine hardware.
