Phosphorous Bronze

Continuous Cast leaded bronze is a general-purpose free machining bronze. It has good medium to heavy load-bearing properties with an ability to conform to minor shaft misalignment. Bronze rod has high wear resistance and is sea water-resistant. SAE 660 is used in general engineering applications as bearings, sliding elements, piston pin bushes, valve and gate seat rings, guide bushes and slip rings.

Cast leaded bronze is not suited for welding, but soldering is possible under advice from a welding consumables supplier.
