CuAl9
Excellent polishability and surface treatment capabilities
Aluminium-Bronze CuAl9 is employed for its excellent corrosion resistance. It is a high-strength alloy, easy to polish, and offers an alternative to brass due to the fineness of its grains. It exhibits a beautiful gold/bronze color.
Aluminium-Bronze alloys are suitable for cold working; the mechanical characteristics remain stable and even slightly improve at very low temperatures without becoming brittle.
Therefore, Aluminium-Bronze alloys are excellent for cryogenic applications.
Aluminium-Bronze in all its forms: raw, polished, painted, nickel-chromium plated, gold-plated…”

Ideal for ornemental pieces
Aluminium-Bronze CuAl9 is commonly used for ornamental parts. Some examples of applications include the stirrups of the Republican Guard, hinges and fittings for luxury showcases and entrance doors of buildings, decorative pieces for lampposts, and components for luxury luggage.
The Aluminium-Bronze CuAl9 is an optimal choice for withstanding wear, even at high temperatures. Its outstanding resistance to shocks, amagnetic properties, and spark-free characteristics make it an ideal material, especially in ATEX environments.
This alloy, stable and unaffected by the passage of time, stands out for its ability to endure prolonged static loads.
