Silicon Bronze Torque Values – Fair Wind Fasteners

Silicon Bronze Torque Values

Want to know the torque values of your silicon bronze bolts, hex cap
screws, tapping bolts, carriage bolts, fin neck bolts, and more? 651 and
655 bronzes are both incredibly strong and importantly, incredibly
corrosion resistant as well as being highly conductive. These non-
ferrous alloys are popular for use in the boat building, electrical, and
water treatment industries and are prized for those exceptional
qualities. 

The torque values of bronze bolts can be found below in this handy
chart:
