What is B61 material?
B61 is a leaded tin bronze gunmetal alloy and has high strength. Gunmetal alloys are useful for many applications because of their combination of high strength in tension and compression, hardness, ductility and high resistance to impact. This alloy is also known as ‘red brass’.
What is ASTM B62?
ASTM B62, 2017 Edition, April 1, 2017 – Standard Specification for Composition Bronze or Ounce Metal Castings. This specification2 establishes requirements for an alloy having a composition of copper, tin, lead, and zinc, used for component castings of valves, flanges, and fittings.
Why bronze is stronger than pure copper?
Copper and zinc atoms are different sizes. This distorts the regular lattice structure in brass, so layers of atoms cannot slide over each other so easily. This makes brass stronger than copper or zinc alone.

What is c862 bronze used for?
(C862, C863, C864, C865, C867) Manganese bronze, the strongest of the “as cast” bronze, is used primarily for heavy duty mechanical products. They provide moderately good corrosion resistance.
What is the strongest type of cast bronze?

What is c903 bronze used for?
Centrifugally Cast – Tin Bronzes (C903, C905, C907, C916) Tin bronze offers excellent corrosion resistance along with good wear resistance and reasonably high strength. Used in sleeve bearings, they wear especially well against steel. Typical uses: Bearings Bushings Pump impellers Piston rings Pump bodies Valves Steam fittings Worm wheels Gears
