Columbia Metals has published a data booklet describing the distinctive service and performance properties of copper-zinc-nickel alloys Nickel Silvers.
This important group of materials provide a "performance-proven" solution to material selection in many industries. Nickel Silvers are traditionally used in:
- •
electronic components;
- •
scientific instruments;
- •
electrical switchgear;
- •
musical instruments;
- •
spectacle frames; and
- •
architectural metalwork
because of their attractive combination of mechanical strength, corrosion/tarnish resistance, physical properties and aesthetic appearance.
The publication gives detailed information on the properties of the three main grades of Nickel Silver (NS101, NS104 and NS106) and Silverspeed-XL extra freemachining rod. Stock tables indicate the wide range of sheet and rod available for immediate delivery.
