PB2 benefits from excellent wear resistance with good machinability.
With increased tin content when compared to PB1, PB2 phosphor bronze alloy benefits from excellent wear resistance. The product offers high strength and good machining characteristics. Good corrosion resistance is also a feature, particularly in saltwater and brine environments. Often referred to as a ‘gear bronze’, PB2 finds typical use in applications such as pump and valve components and bearings which are subject to medium to high loads and speeds.
The alloy also offers good resistance to pounding and impact loading.
Commercial applications for this engineering material include:
We stock PB2 in round bar, plate and sheet.
Our knowledgeable staff and resident metallurgists will be pleased to assist you further on any technical topic. Smiths Metal Centres Limited also boasts an in-house UKAS Accredited Testing Laboratory which is unique within the multi-metal and plastic stockholding sector. We believe this underlines our total commitment to quality and our ethos of being the complete service provider.
