Key grades Why it wins: High IACS conductivity (Cu), outstanding cavitation and seawater resistance (NAB/Al-Bronze), good machinability (brasses). Forms: Busbar, bar/rod, tube/pipe, plate/sheet, rings/forgings, castings.QA/Testing: Conductivity (IACS %), mechanicals, grain size, UT on thick sections; corrosion tests on bronzes if specified. RFQ checklist: Grade/spec, conductivity target (for Cu), size & temper, form (busbar/tube/casting), NDE, coating […]
