C36500 Leaded Muntz

C36500 Leaded Muntz is a copper alloy enriched with zinc, tin, and lead, striking an excellent balance between strength, corrosion resistance, and superior machinability. While it offers comparable strength and corrosion resistance to C46400 Naval Brass, its higher lead content significantly enhances machinability, making it ideal for various applications. Historically, C36500 gained prominence in the shipbuilding industry as a hull liner and has since become a preferred choice in the pressure vessel sector, especially for tube-sheets and condenser plates. Beyond industrial uses, its warm reddish-gold hue and corrosion resistance make C36500 Leaded Muntz suitable for decorative and architectural applications. This alloy’s versatility and durability ensure it remains a sought-after material, appealing to both functional and aesthetic needs across diverse industries. With its rich history and broad applicability, C36500 continues to be a valuable resource in modern manufacturing and design.
