Alloy Grade UNS: C95500 – Non-Ferrous Alloys

  • Overview

    C95500 is a high-strength, nickel-bearing aluminum bronze renowned for its exceptional toughness and resilience in demanding applications. This alloy exhibits a remarkable combination of high tensile strength, exceptional yield and compressive strength, high hardness, and good ductility, making it capable of withstanding heavy loads, shock, and impact without permanent deformation. Its inherent toughness and resilience make it particularly well-suited for challenging environments where components are subjected to extreme forces and vibrations. Additionally, C95500 offers good resistance to seawater corrosion and heat, further expanding its suitability for diverse applications. Its good machinability and excellent weldability make it readily adaptable to complex designs and manufacturing processes.

Non-Ferrous

Non-ferrous alloys are, literally, materials that are not iron-based. While others may provide non-ferrous materials of other materials, the MetalTek family of non-ferrous alloys are copper-based. In general, these materials deliver high strength, and excellent wear and corrosion resistance. They are often found in marine applications and also bushing, bearing, and gear environments.
Stainless Steel Parts

Stainless Steel

Stainless steels owe their ability to resist corrosion primarily to the presence of a passive film on their surface. Chromium is chiefly responsible for formation of the passive film. Iron ceases to rust at approximately 12% chromium content and resistance to oxidizing corrosives increases rapidly with chromium content up to approximately 20%.
Petrochemical Fittings

Specialty Alloys

Specialty Alloys comprise a broad group of materials that deliver properties for more demanding applications, use more exotic or expensive materials, or require special processes to manufacture. Where standard materials may not offer desired performance, specialty alloys (including those that are modified further) may be a sensible selection.
