C86300 Manganese Bronze

C86300 Manganese Bronze Bearing Continuous Cast Bronze Bearing & Bushing

Manganese Bronze Alloys: Alloy with copper as matrix element and manganese as main alloying element.

Manganese bronzes are modifications of Muntz type metal alloys (60% copper 40% zinc brass) containing small additions of manganese

Manganese Bronze – Copper Cast Alloy UNS C86300 is an alloy that is mainly composed of copper, zinc and aluminum. The manganese present in UNS C86300 gives the alloy a chocolate brown color. UNS C86300 copper casting alloy is used in architecture because of its durability.

Tough and corrosion-resistant, C86300 (SAE 430B) Manganese Bronze Bushing is ideal for high load, low-speed applications that require a combination of outstanding wear characteristics and high bearing strength. Despite its strength characteristics, however, this manganese bronze alloy is not heat-treatable, needs reliable lubrication, and should be used in conjunction with hardened shafts. The lead in the alloy’s makeup improves machinability without materially affecting its mechanical properties.

Wear Characteristics And High Bearing Strength

C86300 manganese bronze is known for its high strength and hardness, the use of manganese as an alloying agent, and the high zinc content. In addition to its excellent mechanical properties, the C86300 manganese also has good corrosion resistance.

C86300 Manganese Bronze (SAE 430B) is a high strength alloy used as bushings, bearings, gears, gibs, screw nuts, bridge pins, valve stems and hydraulic cylinder parts.

C86300 manganese bronze bearing applications require reliable lubrication. Besides excellent mechanical qualities, these alloys have good corrosion resistance.

Applications: Industrial – Selecting Bronze Bearing Materials – Manganese Bronze

Manganese bronze is used for applications that require extremely high strength and excellent corrosion resistance.

Manganese bronzes are modifications of Muntz metal alloys (60% copper 40% zinc brass) containing small additions of manganese, iron and aluminum, in addition to lead for lubrication, anti-seizing and embeddibility. Like aluminum bronzes, they combine very high strength with excellent corrosion resistance. Bronze manganese bearings can operate at high speeds under heavy loads, but require high shaft hardness and non-abrasive operating conditions.

High Tensile (C86300) Manganese Bronze

Manufacturer and supplier of self-lubricating bronze bearing in manganese bronze material

Standard-stocked bronze bearing

Machined Manganese Bronze Bushings

• Customizable design for Extra Heavy Loads
• Highly resistant to deformation
• High Wear-resistant
• Corrosion-resistant
• Low friction coefficient
• Includes Grease or Oil Grooves

The range of bushing products regularly include bearings, flanged and half bushes, wear plates, and many other castings for general engineering

Why choose this manganese bronze material?

• Tensile strengths range from 60,000 psi to 110,000 psi and are readily available depending on the composition of the alloy chosen.
• Special care should be taken when using these alloys as bearings as manganese bronze and steel do not wear well together. Wear is rapid and a seizure can occur with high load and speed. Alignment must be precise and positive lubrication is essential.
