CuAl8Fe3, CW303G, ASTM B150/B150M, DIN 17665, EN 12163 

CuAl8Fe3 is a type of copper alloy commonly referred to as aluminum bronze. It consists primarily of copper (Cu). This alloy is valued for its excellent mechanical properties and corrosion resistance, particularly in marine environments and industrial applications.

Specifications

  • High Strength: Aluminum and iron additions improve the tensile and yield strength of the alloy.

  • Excellent Corrosion Resistance: Particularly against seawater, saline solutions, and other harsh environments.

  • Good Wear and Abrasion Resistance: Suitable for applications involving heavy wear.

  • Anti-Galling Properties: It resists surface damage from friction.

  • Thermal and Electrical Conductivity: Lower than pure copper but adequate for certain engineering applications.

Applications

  • Marine Industry: Propeller shafts, pump impellers, and other ship components.

  • Aerospace: Components requiring strength and corrosion resistance.

  • Industrial Equipment: Bearings, bushings, and valves.

  • Oil and Gas Industry: Parts exposed to corrosive fluids or environments.

Its composition and properties make it ideal for use in environments where both mechanical performance and resistance to corrosion are critical.
