Bronze 90300 provides high thermal conductivity, excellent ductility, and toughness, making it suitable for a wide variety of uses in aerospace, marine defense, and commercial industry.

This cast bronze material is often found in landing gear bushings, pumps, valves, bearings, gears, gear blanks, and many other industrial applications.

Details

Tin Bronze C90300 (CuSn8Zn4) is a tin bronze with the addition of 8% tin and 4% zinc, commonly known as Navy G.

The tin increases the strength of the alloy and gives good corrosion resistance in marine environments and zinc is added to act as a deoxidant and assist with pressure tightness.

C90300 offers a combination of engineering properties, such as high strength, excellent fatigue, good bearing properties, coupled with corrosion resistance.

It has excellent bearing properties with a low coefficient of friction and high wear resistance; it can be used under high loads with low-speed applications. Bearings need good alignment of mating parts and adequate lubrication.

C90300 can be joined by soldering, but brazing must be preformed so as to avoid strain and cooled slowly to avoid problems with hot shortness.

The alloy has a machinability rating of 30% compared with free machining brass at 100%.

Bronze C90300 is a unique alloy offering numerous beneficial properties, making it a high-utility material across various industries. Manufactured by Wieland Diversified, a leader in the specialty metals industry, Bronze CDA 90300 stands out due to its superior corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and thermal conductivity. Its exceptional machinability allows it to be used in multiple applications, ranging from landing gear bushings and pumps to valves, bearings, and gears.

The Bronze 90300 alloy is a Tin Bronze with 8 percent tin and 4 percent zinc. This composition is often referred to as Navy G. This unique blend gives the alloy a remarkable level of strength that withstands harsh conditions, especially in marine environments. Thanks to its added tin content, the alloy’s corrosion resistance is significantly elevated. Further, adding zinc acts as a deoxidant, promoting pressure tightness. Whether for aerospace, marine defense, or commercial industry uses, the C90300 bronze alloy offers an unmatched combination of engineering properties, including high strength, excellent fatigue characteristics, and exceptional bearing qualities.

The alloy does not stop impressing with its corrosion resistance. You can also characterize it by its superior fatigue strength and bearing properties. These characteristics make it the perfect material for high loads in low-speed applications. Nonetheless, bearings made from this alloy require proper alignment and sufficient lubrication to function optimally.

When it comes to joining, Bronze CDA 90300 offers flexibility. While you can effortlessly join it by soldering, you must be careful when brazing to avoid strain, followed by slow cooling to prevent issues with hot shortness. Considering its machinability, Bronze C90300 has a rating of 30 percent compared to free-machining brass at 100 percent.

Purchasing Bronze CDA 90300 from Wieland Diversified offers several advantages. The company excels in providing high-quality specialty metals, ensuring that the Bronze CDA 90300 you receive meets or exceeds industry standards.
