An intermediate-strength alloy with improved resistance to wear and brazing. It is used for aluminium-bronze plate fabrications and for dissimilar metals such as cast iron, carbon steels, copper as well as copper-nickel materials.
Taurus aluminium-bronze MIG wire is an intermediate-strength alloy with improved resistance to wear and brazing. It is used for aluminium-bronze plate fabrications and for dissimilar metals such as cast iron, carbon steels, copper as well as copper-nickel materials.
Applications include wear-surface reconstruction, casting repairs, general maintenance and galvanized sheet-metal fabrication when high-strength welds are required.
