Applications:

Senor Phosphor Bronze A Electrode is useful for welding copper tin bronzes (Cu-Sn 6-8 %) and some brasses (Cu-Zn). Also suitable for joining wrought copper-tin bronzes and brasses to cast iron and carbon steel. This is recommended for repairing wrought bronzes (Cu-Sn); for surfacing on brasses, steels and cast iron. Some of other applications are as under:

• Useful for Joining base metals of similar composition.
• Construction of equipment for the chemical industry and petrochemical industry.
• Naval constructions and installations for sea water desalination, repair works.
