COPPER ALLOY DATA SHEET

 

 

 

 

C65600

 

Ansonia C65600, also known as Everdur, has a nominal composition of 95.8% copper, 3.1% silicon and 1.1% manganese.  As a low fuming bronze welding filler metal, its good fluidity and strength makes it most commonly used where the highest weld metal properties are required.

 

Joining:  Ansonia Everdur C65600 is suitable for inert arc, carbon arc and oxyacetylene welding of Everdur, copper and copper alloys; also for welding to and for surfacing steel.  It produces excellent results in the inert gas welding of copper-silicon alloys.

 

Applications:  Typically used extensively as welding rod and filler metal for welding copper and copper alloys, and for many sheet metal applications such as automotive bodywork using plain and galvanized steel, as well as in the fabrication of chemical and process equipment and other pressure vessels.

 

Applicable Specifications:  When so specified, Everdur C65600 will be manufactured to the latest revision of the following specification:  AWS A5.7 for welding rod and wire.

 

Standard Forms Available:  Rod and wire.  For other forms, please consult Ansonia Copper & Brass, Inc.
