Tin Bronze Chemical Composition, Grade Chart, Tables and Documents

The Tin bronze is an alloy that has a diverse range of properties, usually having lesser amounts of Tin in it than copper. The chemical composition is different, but there are some well-known ratios that usually range between 90% copper and 10% tin and the other ratios like 80% copper and 20% tin. There can be some other elements added like zinc, phosphor and lead, but they are rarely used. The base of this alloy is an outstanding corrosion resistant, machinable, and wear resistant material what gives him a wide range of use. Various tin bronze alloys are constituted through their particular compositions and characteristics. Therefore, the charts of grades enable one to choose the material for various industrial applications. Complete with tables and documents that cover the constituents, mechanical attributes, and application of each grade, are provided in the trade catalog which is very important for human beings in their professions such as engineers, metallurgists or manufacturers.

Tin Bronze Chemical Composition Table

Tin-bronze, one of the strongest alloys with great anti-corrosion and machine-ability features, usually consists of copper and varying portions of tin. Most of the alloys, having the length of around 9 cm, contain 90% of copper and 10% of tin, although very often there are some particular requirements that cause changes in the ratios. While this alloys distinctive characteristics make it one of the most popular and versatile materials in the crafting history, from the sculptures to the machine components, it is never considered as the rainbow substitute. Tin bronze for its very degree of castability and Gh can be sited or brazed easily. Its chemical composition as well as its resistance to corrosion are the unique qualities that make it perfect for areas that are inhospitable or corrosive. Timely maintenance increases the work time of tin bronze parts in different industries.

Tin (Sn) 6-8% 5-9 -
Zinc (Zn) 1-4% 0.5-4 5.0
Phosphorus (P) 0.1-0.35% 0.05-0.4 0.5
Lead (Pb) 0.05% max Trace - 0.05 0.1
Iron (Fe) 0.1% max Trace - 0.1 0.2
Nickel (Ni) 0.2% max Trace - 0.2 0.5
Aluminum (Al) 0.1% max Trace - 0.1 0.2
Silicon (Si) 0.1% max Trace - 0.1 0.2
Other Elements 0.5% max each Trace - 0.5 0.5
