Phosphor Bronze

Phosphor Bronze is an excellent bearing alloy due to the inclusion of tin and phosphor. Up to 0.50% phosphor offers increased wear resistance in parts such as bushings and sleeve bearings. Strength and corrosion resistance are enhanced due to an upper limit of 4.5% tin. These alloys are also known for excellent soldering ability, low coefficient of friction and fine grain.
Typical Applications:
Electrical Connectors
Bushings
Musical Instruments
Sleeve Bearings
Screw Machine Parts
Gears
Valve Parts
Spring Washers
