ASTM B171 Copper Alloy C95400 Fittings: Superior Strength and Versatility
ASTM B171 Copper Alloy C95400 Fittings are an important component in a variety of industrial applications due to their high strength, excellent wear resistance, and superior durability. These fittings are made from C95400, a popular grade of aluminum bronze, which is known for its remarkable properties that offer both reliability and longevity in various demanding environments. As a leading supplier and exporter, ASC LLP provides high-quality ASTM B171 Copper Alloy C95400 Fittings, tailored to meet industry standards and project specifications.
What is ASTM B171 Copper Alloy C95400 Fittings?
ASTM B171 Copper Alloy C95400 Fittings refer to fittings made from aluminum bronze alloys, specifically the C95400 grade, which is governed by ASTM B171 standards. ASTM B171 is a specification that covers copper alloy plates, sheets, and fittings, commonly used for applications that require resistance to corrosion and wear. The C95400 alloy is composed of 84% copper, 10% aluminum, and 4% iron, making it one of the most robust copper-based alloys available. This makes these fittings ideal for industries such as marine, oil and gas, and heavy machinery.
Properties of ASTM B171 C95400 Copper Alloy Fittings
ASTM B171 C95400 Copper Alloy Fittings exhibit unique properties that contribute to their wide use in multiple industries. Some of the key properties of these fittings include:
- High Tensile Strength: With a tensile strength of approximately 655 MPa, these fittings are suitable for high-stress environments.
- Excellent Wear Resistance: The addition of aluminum in the alloy enhances the wear resistance, making it ideal for components that experience continuous friction or movement.
- Corrosion Resistance: C95400 offers exceptional resistance to corrosion, particularly in environments exposed to seawater or chemical processing.
- Thermal Conductivity: The alloy has good thermal conductivity, making it suitable for high-temperature applications.
- Non-Sparking: This property is critical in environments where sparks could be hazardous, such as oil refineries and chemical plants.
- Machinability: ASTM B171 C95400 fittings can be easily machined and welded, offering flexibility for customized designs and configurations.
Advantages of ASTM B171 C95400 Copper Alloy Fittings
The advantages of ASTM B171 C95400 Copper Alloy fittings are numerous, making them a preferred choice in a variety of sectors:
- Durability: Thanks to the alloy’s high tensile strength and excellent resistance to wear, these fittings have a long service life, reducing the need for frequent replacements and maintenance.
- Corrosion Resistance: This is one of the standout advantages of these fittings. The copper-aluminum alloy’s corrosion resistance, especially in saline environments, makes it ideal for marine and offshore applications.
- Versatility: C95400 Copper Alloy fittings are suitable for use in diverse industries, from heavy equipment manufacturing to chemical processing.
- Cost-Effective: The longevity and durability of these fittings mean that they offer excellent value for money, particularly in challenging environments where frequent part replacements are common.
- Sustainability: Copper alloys, including C95400, are environmentally friendly as they can be recycled without losing their inherent properties.
