Alloy Grade UNS: C95500HT – High Strength Alloy

  • Overview

    C95500HT is a high-strength aluminum bronze alloy that undergoes specialized heat treatment to achieve exceptional mechanical properties, often rivaling the strength of steel while maintaining superior corrosion resistance. This enhanced alloy exhibits remarkable resilience and toughness, making it capable of withstanding heavy loads and resisting deformation under extreme conditions. Furthermore, C95500HT offers outstanding wear and galling resistance, ensuring long-lasting performance and minimizing damage in applications involving friction and sliding contact. This combination of high strength, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance makes C95500HT a valuable choice for demanding environments where durability and reliability are paramount.

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.
