‌‌Silicon bronze plate‌ is a bronze material with silicon as the main alloying element. In addition to silicon, it also contains a small amount of manganese, nickel, zinc or other elements. Silicon is a limited solid solution in copper, and the maximum solubility can reach 5.3% at 852℃, but as the temperature decreases, the solubility decreases, and the aging hardening effect is not strong, so it is generally not subjected to strengthening heat treatment.

Specifications (mm): Customizable dimensions and thickness.
Transportation packaging: Standard export carton/iron rack/pallet/crate, etc.

Product Features

● Strength: After quenching and tempering, the strength and hardness are greatly improved.

● ‌Wear resistance: It has good wear resistance and is suitable for working conditions with poor lubrication.

● ‌Corrosion resistance: It has high corrosion resistance in the atmosphere, fresh water and sea water, and a dense and strong chloride film will form on the surface, but the erosion rate will accelerate in high flow rate or high temperature environment.

● ‌Processability: It is easy to process and can be processed by cold and hot pressure, but it cannot be strengthened by heat treatment.

● Excellent Cold Processing: This material can be easily cold-formed, making it suitable for complex shapes and applications.

Application fields

● Machinery manufacturing‌: Used to manufacture friction parts under working conditions below 300°C, poor lubrication, and low unit pressure, such as guide sleeves for engine exhaust and intake valves‌1.

● ‌Electrical industry‌: It also has important applications in the electrical industry, especially in marine environments‌.

● ‌Other applications‌: It is also used to make springs, spring parts, worms, worm gears, bushings, brake pins and rod-type wear-resistant parts, and can even replace tin bronze or beryllium bronze‌
