The composition of these sheets and plates is a key to their strength, primarily a copper base enriched with aluminium, often including iron and nickel for enhanced performance. This mix gives the material its remarkable mechanical properties, including exceptional tensile strength and outstanding wear resistance. They are particularly valued for their ability to resist corrosion, especially in seawater and chemical environments, and their high fatigue strength ensures they can handle repeated stress without failing, making them a reliably tough choice for demanding applications.
