Bronze In CNC Machining
Bronze is a durable alloy made of copper, tin, and lead, known for its excellent machinability, strength, corrosion resistance, and thermal conductivity. The addition of lead improves its machinability, making it ideal for CNC machining. Commonly used in industries like marine, aerospace, and industrial machinery, bronze is perfect for low-stress components like bearings, bushings, and marine equipment, offering reliable performance and longevity.
