Alloy Grade UNS: C95510 – Highly Flexible Alloys

  • Overview

    C95510, also known as AMS 4880, is a high-strength nickel-aluminum bronze alloy that offers a remarkable combination of strength, flexibility, and corrosion resistance. With a composition of approximately 10.3% aluminum, 5% nickel, and 3.7% iron, this alloy achieves a strength comparable to steel while maintaining the corrosion resistance inherent to bronze alloys. Its high flexibility allows for excellent conformability and resistance to cracking under stress, while its outstanding wear and galling resistance ensures long-lasting performance in applications involving friction and sliding contact. This unique blend of properties makes C95510 a valuable choice for demanding environments where high strength, corrosion resistance, and wear resistance are critical.

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.
