Choosing Aluminum Bronze C952 for Your Bronze Alloy Castings

Erie Bronze & Aluminum produces Aluminum Bronze C952 to meet several ASME, ASTM, and SAE bronze casting material specifications:

• ASME SB148: This specification establishes requirements for aluminum bronze sand casting.
• ASTM B 148: This specification establishes requirements for sand castings produced from copper-base alloys.
• ASTM B 763: This is a standard specification for copper alloy sand castings used for valve applications.
• ASTM B 584:  This is a standard specification for copper alloy sand castings used 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.

Aluminum Bronze C952’s welding characteristics give it an edge over other metals and metal alloys. It is considered an excellent material for gas shielded arc welding, as well as coated metal arc welding, soldering, and brazing, making it a versatile metal alloy for numerous fabrication practices. Aluminum Bronze C952 is considered non-sparking and is well suited for working with chemical and gas products. This bronze alloy is a good electrical and thermal conductor, making it an ideal choice for these operations.
