Phosphor Bronze India


Introduction:

We are one of the leading manufacturer, supplier and exporter of Phosphor Bronze in Ahmedabad, India. Phosphor bronze is an alloy primarily composed of copper, tin, and phosphorus. It is known for its exceptional strength, corrosion resistance, and electrical conductivity, making it a valuable material in various applications across industries. Phosphor bronze is utilized in a variety of products and assemblies that require resistance to fatigue, wear, and corrosion, such as springs, bolts, bushings, and bearings; electrical switches with moving or sliding parts; dental bridges; and the reed component of organ pipes.

Our superior casting services for phosphor bronze, an alloy of copper, tin, and phosphorous, serve a wide range of industries. We provide services to the defense, aerospace, and electrical industries. We employ the quickest, easiest, and most dependable die casting method for the phosphor bronze. We also use the green sand or air set process in our sand casting process for our collection of phosphorus bronze castings. It is meticulously done to get rid of casting microerrors. Its construction entirely avoids microporosity.

Key characteristics of phosphor bronze include:

  • Strength and Durability: Phosphor bronze exhibits high strength and durability, making it suitable for applications requiring robust materials. It can withstand heavy loads and offers good wear resistance.
  • Corrosion Resistance: The addition of phosphorus to the alloy enhances its resistance to corrosion, especially in environments where exposure to moisture, chemicals, or saltwater occurs. This property makes phosphor bronze suitable for marine applications and components exposed to harsh conditions.
  • Electrical Conductivity: Phosphor bronze maintains good electrical conductivity, making it useful for electrical and electronic components such as connectors, springs, switches, and various contacts.
  • Machinability: It is relatively easy to machine and work with phosphor bronze, allowing for the creation of intricate parts and components.
  • Anti-Friction Properties: Phosphor bronze has inherent self-lubricating properties, reducing friction between moving parts and making it suitable for use in bearings and bushings.

Phosphor bronze alloys can vary in their compositions, with different ratios of copper, tin, and phosphorus affecting their specific properties. The most common grades include those containing around 0.5-11% tin and 0.01-0.35% phosphorus.
