Casting Material: Leaded Red Brass C83600

C83600 Leaded Red Brass (85-5-5-5 Brass) is popular copper with high aqueous and atmospheric corrosion
resistance property.
C83600 is Brass Alloy UNS number in ASTM A145 and ASMT B584 and ASTM B505 and ASTM B62 for
casting purpose.

ASTM B145-70Standard Specification for Leaded Red Brass and Leaded Semi-Red Brass Sand Castings
(Withdrawn 1972) (Replace by ASTM B584)
ASTM B584 - 14 Standard Specification for Copper Alloy Sand Castings for General Applications
ASTM B62 - 17 Standard Specification for Composition Bronze or Ounce Metal Castings
ASTM B505 / B505M - 18 Standard Specification for Copper Alloy Continuous Castings
ASTM B62 only defines one brass casting of C83600, mainly used for component castings of valves, flanges
and fittings. But ASTM B505 and B584 defined many brass grades.

Leaded Red Brass Nickel C83600 Casting Typical Application:


Bearing
Bushing
Valve body,
Pump Impeller, Pump Bowl.
Pipe Fittings.
Marine hardware, ship propeller.
Chemical Industry.

Leaded Red Brass Nickel C83600 Casting can be made by four casting processes:
Sand Casting
Investment Casting
Permanent Mold Casting
Continuous casting (Centrifugal Casting).
Casting method is very important to get the different strength. Sand casting can produce any products but it’s
property is little low. Centrifugal casting can get stably density and have the best strength property.

Composition Requirements and Mechanical Property:
Copper: 84.0-86.0%
Tin: 4.0-6.0%
Lead: 4.0-6.0%
Zinc: 4.0-6.0%
Nickel including Cobalt: 1.0% max
Iron: 0.30% max
Antimony: 0.25%
Sulfur : 0.08% max
Phosphorus: 1.5% max (ASTM B65 required 0.05% max, for continuous castings can be 1.5% max)
Aluminum: 0.005%
