Robust and durable - high-strength copper alloys and aluminum bronze
Their outstanding properties make aluminum bronzes and copper alloys the ideal material for highly stressed components in construction machinery.
They offer an ideal combination of high mechanical strength, wear resistance and corrosion resistance. This benefits building construction and civil engineering in particular. This is precisely where components have to withstand wind, weather and stress – over a long period of use.
Copper alloys, especially aluminum bronzes, offer not only high compressive strength but also good emergency running properties. This makes them particularly suitable for plain bearings, guide bushes and pump components. Due to their high abrasion resistance, these alloys are also very suitable for wear plates or gear components of moving machine parts.
Thanks to their high corrosion resistance, especially in aggressive environments (moisture, chemicals), they prevent seizing and rust formation. Among other things, this increases the operational safety and service life of the construction machinery and guarantees a high level of ease of maintenance.
