C54400 phosphor bronze is an important copper alloy that has a wide range of applications in engineering. The chemical composition of the alloy includes copper (Cu), tin (sn), phosphorus (P), lead (Pb), iron (Fe), zinc (Zn) and other elements, of which the lead content is 34% to 4between 5% and the tin content is 35% to 4Between 5%, the zinc content is 15% to 4Between 5%, the phosphorus content is 001% to 050% between.
Due to its lead content, C54400 phosphor bronze has excellent cutting properties and good cold working properties. The addition of lead gives the alloy a low coefficient of friction and good self-lubrication, which improves the efficiency and precision of the cutting process. However, due to its lead content, C54400 phosphor bronze is not suitable for use as parts with high requirements for copper alloy hardness and strength, such as bearings, bushings, gears, shafts, thrust rings, etc.
According to ASTM standard B103-1991, year B edition) and JIS standard C5440, C54400 phosphor bronze has a wide range of applications in the engineering field. It is often used to manufacture parts that require high cutting performance and cold workability, such as mechanical parts, connectors, automotive parts, pipe fittings, etc. Its good mechanical properties and corrosion resistance have also made it used in engineering construction, decoration and other fields.
Overall, C54400 phosphor bronze is widely used in the engineering field due to its excellent cutting performance and good cold working performance. Although its lead-containing content limits some applications, it is a copper alloy with excellent properties within the scope of application, providing reliable material support for engineering projects.
