Aluminium Bronze Rods

Aluminium Bronze Rods

Kanak Pipe Industries is a leading manufacturer of Aluminium Bronze Rods in Mumbai, India. The aluminum bronze C61800 contains 89% copper, 10% aluminum, and 1% iron. The alloy is moderate in strength and ductility and can be worked in both hot as well as cold successfully. It possesses resistance to corrosion in different environments and is applicable in the manufacturing of bushings, bearings, corrosion-resistant components, and welding rods.

Key characteristics and properties of Aluminum Bronze:

  • Strength and Ductility: Aluminum Bronze exhibits moderate strength and ductility. This combination of properties makes it versatile, allowing the material to be worked both in hot and cold conditions, offering flexibility in manufacturing processes.
  • Corrosion Resistance: One of the notable features of Aluminum Bronze is its excellent resistance to corrosion in various environments. This makes it particularly valuable in applications where exposure to moisture, chemicals, or harsh atmospheric conditions is a concern.
    Versatility in Applications: Aluminum Bronze finds widespread use in different industries due to its favorable properties. Common applications include the manufacturing of bushings, bearings, corrosion-resistant components, and welding rods. Its corrosion resistance and mechanical strength make it suitable for use in marine environments and other challenging conditions.
  • Machinability: Aluminum Bronze is generally machinable, allowing for the fabrication of intricate components and parts with relative ease. This property enhances its usability in manufacturing processes.
  • Weldability: The alloy is often weldable, allowing for the joining of aluminum-bronze components through welding processes. This facilitates the fabrication of larger structures or assemblies.
  • Heat Conductivity: While not as high as pure copper, Aluminum Bronze still retains good heat conductivity, making it suitable for applications where thermal properties are important.         

 

Due to its specific composition and properties, Aluminum Bronze is selected for applications where a combination of corrosion resistance, mechanical strength, and other favorable characteristics are required. It is commonly employed in industries such as marine engineering, aerospace, chemical processing, and more. The specific alloy composition may vary based on the intended application and performance requirements.
