CuSn8 is a lead-free tin bronze with moderate casting properties. It is primarily characterized by its good hot and cold formability. However, you can add 4-7% tin to obtain a lead-free cast bronze with ideal casting properties. This would be a lucrative alternative to CuSn12-C, which contains up to 3% lead for technical reasons.
For ideal casting behavior, we recommend casting the alloy at 1100-1150°C and adding slag binder for copper-based alloys to the melt beforehand.
The surface of the ingots is not polished and therefore somewhat duller. Nevertheless, the material is clean and free of impurities.
The molding sand available in our shops is very well suited as a molding material for bronze castings.
