High-Leaded Tin Bronze Alloy C93600
C93600 is a high-leaded tin bronze alloy composed of approximately 80 to 84 percent copper, 10 to 13 percent lead, 3 to 5 percent tin, and minor amounts of zinc and nickel. Known for its exceptional bearing properties and durability under heavy load and slow-speed conditions, C93600 is an ideal choice for demanding industrial applications.
Key Characteristics:
- Exceptional Load-Carrying Capacity
- Excellent Embeddability and Conformability
- Outstanding Wear Resistance
- Good Anti-Seizing Properties
- Superior Machinability
- Excellent Corrosion Resistance in Wet and Salty Environments
Also known as CDA 936, C936 Bearing Bronze, or High-Leaded Tin Bronze, this alloy is engineered for high-performance in applications that require superior friction reduction and long-term durability. The high lead content provides excellent conformability, making it ideal for bearing surfaces that see less lubrication or higher contamination risk.
C93600 is particularly well-suited for:
- High-load, low-speed Bearings
- Bushings
- Wear Plates
- Pump Components
- Diesel Engine Bearings
- Industrial Machinery Bearings
- Marine and Saltwater Equipment
With a proven record of performance in harsh conditions, C93600 continues to be a go-to alloy for heavy-duty bearing applications in construction, agriculture, marine, and manufacturing sectors. It performs reliably where consistent lubrication is not always guaranteed, and where resistance to corrosion, galling, and fatigue are critical.
