Description

Phosphor Bronze Hollow Solid Bar PB1 Imperial

  • PB1 Phosphor Bronze is a high-strength material that is often referred to as ‘gear bronze’.
  • Components that are machined from PB1 are particularly durable in applications where high working loads and speeds are encountered, provided that there is good alignment and adequate lubrication.
  • PB1 has good machining properties and good corrosion resistance to seawater and brine, making it suitable for pump and valve components.
  • Manufactured using finely controlled continuous or centrifugal casting techniques to ensure that hardness and strength are superior to sand-casting methods.
  • Material has a fine grain structure and is free from porosity.
