C86200, commonly known as manganese bronze or high-strength yellow brass, is a high-performance copper-zinc alloy distinguished by its exceptional mechanical properties. Its primary characteristics are very high tensile strength, excellent wear resistance, and good hardness, making it far superior to standard brass alloys for heavy-duty applications. These properties stem from its unique composition, which includes significant additions of manganese, aluminum, and iron, contributing to its robust performance under stress and friction.
