Cuprass® (CuZnAl) is a family of manganese bronzes that are resistant to seawater corrosion and have vibration isolating properties. In order to enhance the mechanical properties of brass, besides copper and zinc, additional elements such as nickel, manganese, iron, tin, or silicon can be added. These additional elements in the special brass alloy do not exceed 5% of the total amount. Cuprass® (CuZnAl) material is a high-strength special alloy. Due to the alloying elements it contains, it has high hardness and tensile strength and shows excellent corrosion resistance.
At Sağlam Metal, three types of high-strength brass are produced, and custom production can be made based on specific compositions.
