AMPCO® 18.23 Continuous-Cast Bronze: Superior Strength & Wear Resistance

Welding cast iron in house is possible—under certain conditions Effective in-house welding of cast iron parts can save time and money—but there are challenges. Welding failure can often result in cracking or other damage. If critical parts are involved, it may be wise to seek the workmanship of a w

This heat-treated alloy is the ultimate in high-strength bronzes requiring good bearing characteristics and exceptional wear resistance. It has greater toughness than grade AMPCO® 18.22 and better physical properties than grades AMPCO® 18 or AMPCO® 18.136. Its exceptional proportional limit gives i

The patented process gives AMPCO® M4 mechanical properties beyond the range of commercial nickel-aluminium bronzes, comparable to beryllium copper at a lower cost and without the beryllium copper industrial hygiene requirements.PropertiesGeneralPropertyTemperatureValueDensity23.0 °C7.45 g/cm³Recycle
