What is Gun Metal 85/5/5/5, and what are its common applications in
manufacturing?
Gun Metal 85/5/5/5 is a specific type of metal alloy composed of 85% copper, 5% tin, 5% lead,
and 5% zinc. This alloy is highly regarded for its desirable mechanical properties and
versatility, making it suitable for various applications in the manufacturing industry. Due
to its excellent resistance to corrosion and wear, Gun Metal 85/5/5/5 is commonly used in
producing bars, rods, and wires for manufacturing components and parts that require
durability and reliability. Its applications range from machinery components, gears, and
valves to bearings, bushings, and connectors.
What are the key characteristics and properties of Gun Metal 85/5/5/5 bars, rods, and
wires?
Gun Metal 85/5/5/5
Bars possess several key characteristics and properties that make them
highly suitable for various industrial applications. First and foremost, these bars exhibit
excellent mechanical strength, allowing them to withstand heavy loads and high-stress
conditions. They also offer good corrosion resistance, making them suitable for environments
where exposure to moisture, chemicals, or harsh weather conditions is a concern. Gun Metal
85/5/5/5 bars are known for their excellent machinability, enabling easy shaping, cutting,
and drilling without compromising their structural integrity.
Gun Metal 85/5/5/5
Rods possess several key characteristics and properties that make them
highly advantageous for various industrial applications. These rods exhibit exceptional
mechanical strength, allowing them to withstand heavy loads and resist deformation under
high-stress conditions. Gun Metal 85/5/5/5 rods offer excellent corrosion resistance, making
them suitable for environments where exposure to moisture, chemicals, or harsh weather
conditions is prevalent. Their corrosion resistance ensures long-term durability and
reliability.
Gun Metal 85/5/5/5
Wires showcase key characteristics and properties that make them highly
advantageous for diverse industrial applications. These wires possess excellent tensile
strength, allowing them to withstand tension and stress without breaking or deforming
easily. Gun Metal 85/5/5/5 wires exhibit remarkable flexibility, enabling them to be easily
bent, twisted, or shaped to suit specific requirements. They offer superior corrosion
resistance, making them suitable for applications where exposure to moisture, chemicals, or
harsh environments is a concern. This corrosion resistance ensures the prolonged durability
and reliability of the wires.
Manufacturing Process Of Gun Metal 85/5/5/5 Bars
Melting and Casting
Steel and alloying metals are loaded into an electric arc furnace. Once
in the furnace, the metal is heated to a specific temperature above its
melting point, usually in excess of 2800°F.
Forming
Most cast steel is formed by hot rolling—the slab, bloom, or billet is
heated and passed through large rollers, stretching out the steel into a
longer, thinner form.
Heat treatment
Heat treatment strengthens rolled stainless steel by recrystallizing the
deformed microstructure. Most stainless steel is heat treated by
annealing.
Descaling
A rolled piece of stainless steel acquires a layer of oxidized “mill
scale,” which needs to be washed away to restore a shiny surface finish.
Cutting or Machining
Stainless steel is cut to a specified shape and size. The stainless steel
can be sheared with circular knives, sawed with high-speed blades, or
blanked with punches.
Packaging and Delivery
To reach their destination in pristine condition, we employ careful
packaging techniques.
