Bronze & High-Leaded Bronze 
Bronze and high-leaded bronze are some of the most commonly used metals for heavy machinery parts fabrication, and it’s for a good reason.
Leaded Tin Bronze Alloy C90800
C90800 is a high-performance tin bronze alloy composed of approximately 88 to 90 percent copper, 10 to 12 percent tin, and trace elements of phosphorus and other metals. This robust composition provides C90800 with a combination of exceptional strength, excellent wear characteristics, and high resistance to corrosion—making it a trusted choice for demanding industrial and mechanical applications.
Key Characteristics:
- High Strength and Durability
- Excellent Wear and Galling Resistance
- Superior Corrosion Resistance in Harsh Environments
- Good Machinability for a Tin Bronze Alloy
- Reliable Performance Under High Loads
- Good Casting Properties for Complex Shapes
Also referred to as CDA 908 or C908 High Tin Bronze, this alloy is widely recognized for its mechanical performance and longevity in service. Its dense structure and ability to withstand impact and fatigue make it especially valuable in applications that involve heavy loads or aggressive operating environments.
C90800 is particularly well-suited for:
- Industrial bearings
- Heavy-duty bushings
- Gears and worm wheels
- Marine hardware and shipbuilding components
- Hydraulic equipment
- Pump and valve parts
With its high tin content and minimal lead, C90800 delivers outstanding corrosion resistance—especially in seawater, brine, and acidic media—making it an ideal alloy for marine and chemical processing industries. It continues to be a go-to choice for OEMs and end users requiring performance-grade bronze components.
