Cuzn38Pb1.5: Comparable Standards: Aurubis Designations: Pna259 en Cw608N Uns C35300 Bs Cz128

CuZn38Pb1.5 is a copper alloy with good machinability and satisfactory cold formability and mechanical properties. It is well-suited for bending, riveting, and upsetting. The alloy has a composition of 59.5-61.5% copper, 1-2% lead, and the remainder zinc. It has good hot working properties and 90% machinability compared to a reference alloy. Typical applications include electrical components, screws, clamps, and connector pins.
