C85800 copper rod is a high-performance manganese-lead brass. Its balanced and excellent overall performance makes it a key choice for critical industrial components. It not only excels in cutting, with easy chip breakage and a smooth surface finish, significantly improving productivity and tool life, but also combines the high strength and hardness imparted by manganese with exceptional wear resistance, making it suitable for demanding physical environments such as load-bearing, movement, and friction.
Furthermore, this material inherits the excellent corrosion resistance of brass, withstanding erosion from a variety of media, including air and seawater, ensuring long service life in harsh operating conditions such as marine and chemical industries. Therefore, C85800 copper rod is ideal for manufacturing parts requiring both excellent mechanical properties and efficient machinability, such as high-strength nuts, marine pumps and valves, and gear bushings.
