SPEC STD
C65100 low-silicon bronze, also known as Low-Silicon Bronze B, is a copper-silicon alloy supplied as rod, bar, plate, and strip under ASTM B98. It combines moderate strength with excellent weldability and corrosion resistance in marine and industrial environments, making it ideal for fasteners, hydraulic lines, pole-line hardware, and welded structural components.

Product Overview

C65100 low-silicon bronze, commonly referred to as Low-Silicon Bronze B, is a wrought copper-silicon alloy containing 0.8–2.0% silicon with minor iron, manganese, and zinc additions. It is governed by ASTM B98 for rod, bar, plate, and strip, and is produced for applications where weldability and corrosion resistance matter more than peak strength.

Produced through hot working and cold drawing, C65100 offers good ductility in the annealed temper and high fatigue endurance after cold work. It welds readily by gas-shielded arc and resistance methods, resists seawater and mildly acidic or alkaline media, and stays non-magnetic. Tensile strength ranges from 380 MPa in H02 half-hard temper to about 585 MPa in H06 extra-hard temper, with electrical conductivity of 12–17% IACS.

Linsy Copper supplies C65100 low-silicon bronze rod, bar, plate, and strip to ASTM B98, with low-MOQ custom production (typical lead time 10–60 days), in-house CNC machining and surface finishing, an MTR/MTC for every order, and optional SGS testing on request.
