C85400 is a high-strength manganese brass sheet renowned for its exceptional mechanical properties and durability. By adding alloying elements such as manganese, iron, and aluminum, it achieves strength, hardness, and excellent wear resistance far exceeding that of ordinary brass. This material’s ability to withstand high loads, severe impact, and constant friction makes it ideal for critical structural components in heavy machinery.
In addition, this copper sheet offers excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in harsh environments like seawater. This combination of properties makes C85400 copper sheet widely used in applications requiring the most demanding materials, making it an ideal material for products such as ship propellers, high-pressure gears, heavy-duty bearings, and chemical pumps and valves.
