Phosphorous Bronze Sheets and Plates are primarily made up of copper (about 88–95%), tin (5–12%), and a trace amount of phosphorus (0.01–0.35%). The inclusion of phosphorus boosts the alloy’s strength, stiffness, and wear resistance, while also enhancing its fatigue and corrosion resistance. These sheets and plates showcase high tensile strength, good elasticity, and excellent machinability. They maintain consistent mechanical properties even under fluctuating temperature conditions and offer remarkable resistance to stress corrosion cracking, making them ideal for precision engineering and mechanical components.
