C16200 Cadmium Copper (CDA 162)

C17200 is also known as Alloy 25 and is the most commonly utilized beryllium copper alloy and is notable for exhibiting the highest strength and hardness compared to commercial copper alloys. Its strength and hardness is similar to that of steel. C17200 copper's ultimate tensile and Rockwell hardness properties in a peak aged condition are in the 200 ksi range and RC 45 respectively (electrical conductivity 22% IACS minimum).

CuNi10Fe1Mn, Copper nickel offers excellent corrosion resistance, especially in marine salt water environments. The main, wrought copper-nickel alloys chosen for sea water service contain 10 or 30 percent nickel.

C510 Phosphor Bronze alloy possesses a higher yield strength than is readily available in most cast products. Typical applications for phosphor bronze include bearings, bushings, gears, pinions, shafts, thrust washers, and valve parts. C51000 Phosphor bronze can be readily brazed or soldered. The capacity for being cold worked is good.

AMS 4880 Nickel Aluminum Bronze is one of the most popular landing gear bushing materials specified today along with AMS 4640 material. NBM's brand of AMS 4880 is continuous cast and heat treated. Our AMS 4880 has outstanding mechanical properties and typically exceeds those of AMS 4640.
