Cu 9.5Al 1Fe Powder Description:
Cu 9.5Al 1Fe Powder is a golden-colored, inert gas atomized bronze material where aluminum is the primary alloying element, complemented by iron. This composition enhances the corrosion resistance of coatings due to the formation of a protective surface oxide layer. The coatings produced from this powder are easily machinable, achieve excellent finishes, and offer good resistance to fretting and galling at low to moderate temperatures. Additionally, they provide excellent resistance to abrasion and cavitation, making them ideal for soft-bearing applications. This material is suitable for low-temperature applications where moderate oxidation, wear, and cavitation resistance are needed, and where better corrosion resistance than that provided by pure copper is required.
