QSn 6.5-0.4 Tin bronze application:

Phosphor tin bronze has similar properties and uses to QSn 6.5-0.1. Due to its high phosphorus content, it has high fatigue strength, good elasticity and wear resistance. However, it has hot brittleness during hot processing and can only be processed under cold pressure.

Mechanical Properties

  • Tensile strength: (σb/MPa) ≥410
  • Elongation: (δ10/%)≥15
  • Elongation :(δ5/%)≥18
  • Note: The test sample diameter is 20~40mm Y(semi-hard) bar.

Category: Tag:

Qsn6.5-0.4 has high strength, elasticity, wear resistance and diamagnetization, good pressure processing under hot and cold states, high fire resistance to electric spark, welding and brazing, good machinability, corrosion resistance in air and fresh water. Because of high phosphorus content, its fatigue strength resistance is high, elasticity and wear resistance is good, but in hot processing has hot brittleness, can only accept cold pressure processing.
