Cu Zn38 Snl Common name: Naval Brass A copper-zine alloy with a duplex alpha-plus-beta phase structure, and containing tin; a small zmount of lead may also be added to Improve machinabilty. The alloy has good hot-working properties and the presence of tin improves corrosion resistance In marine and other mildly aggressive environments. The wrought material is generally supplied as plate, sheet or rod. COMPOSITION (weight %)* cu . 595-635, So.) | os ts zo. rem. In Amarican practice, Cu Zn88 Soi may be inhibited * Loaded alloys containing up to about 2% Pb are also covered by thls data sho cor phosphorus (002-0108). 1 SOME TYPICAL USES Marine and Mechanical Condenser and heat exchanger tubeplates; bolts, nuts, rivets and other hardware for underwater applications; forged and machined components for marine equipment. 2 PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Metric Units English Units ac ei 8.40 gfem™ 0.308 ' Ibjin? 24 Density at 20°C weer.
