Description CuSn6 is a solid solution strengthened copper alloy (bronze) with 6% tin. The alloy has high
strength and good spring properties at an adequate conductivity and is well suited for cold
forming operations. The alloy is wear-resistant, has very good corrosion resistance and can be
readily soldered.

Electrical The electrical conductivity depends on chemical composition, the level of cold deformation and
conductivity the grain size. A high level of deformation as well as a small grain size decrease the
conductivity.

Corrosion Bronce is resistant to: Natural and industrial atmospheres as well as maritime air, drinking and
Resistance service water (if the flow rate is not excessive), seawater, non oxidizing acids, alkaline solutions
and neutral saline solutions.
Bronce is not resistant to: Ammonia, halogenide, cyanide and hydrogen sulfide solutions and
atmospheres, oxidizing acids.
Bronce alloys have an improved resistivity towards seawater and pitting corrosion.

Typical uses Automotive, components of electrical engineering, connectors, relays and conductor springs,
retaining clamps, springs, metal hose, bushings, paper-, textile- and chemical indsutry as well
as mechanical and apparatus engineering and shipbuilding
