Manganese Bronze C865

Bronze Casting Supplier: Manganese Bronze Alloy C865 for Brackets, Gears, & Machinery Parts

Erie Bronze & Aluminum is a non-ferrous manganese casting supplier specializing in manganese bronze alloy castings. Serving numerous industries, we cast a variety of non-leaded bronze alloys, including manganese bronze C865. Manganese bronze C865’s microstructure and corrosion-resistant characteristics are ideal for parts requiring strength and toughness. Manganese bronze alloys can operate under very high loads and speeds.  Its typical uses include brackets, gears, lever arms, machinery parts, salt and fresh water components, and valve stems. Manganese Bronze C865’s elemental structure makes this alloy a superior choice for these applications.

Choosing Manganese Bronze Alloy C865 for Your Bronze Alloy Sand Castings

Erie Bronze & Aluminum produces manganese bronze alloy C865 to meet several ASTM and SAE casting material specifications:

• ASTM B 763 – Standard Specification for Copper Alloy Sand Castings for Valve Applications
• ASTM B 584 – Standard Specification for Copper Alloy Sand Castings for General Applications
• SAE J461- This specification is used for cast copper alloys to maintain the electrical and thermal conductivity properties, mechanical properties, yield strength, fatigue characteristics, formability, and machinability of these alloys.
• SAE J462 – This specification is focused on cast copper alloys used in aerospace, automotive, and commercial vehicle industries.

Manganese bronze C865’s characteristics give it an edge over other metals and metal alloys, making it a versatile metal alloy for numerous fabrication practices. Soldering and brazing of manganese bronze alloy C865 is fair as opposed to other manganese bronze alloys, which is typically poor.
