Nickel Aluminium Bronzes comes from a family of Copper Alloys where Aluminium is the principal alloying element. They are valued for their higher strength and corrosion resistance as compared to other Bronze Alloys. It also exhibits good resistance to dealumnification when heat treated.
C63000 is the most popular American grade of Nickel Aluminium Bronze. C63000 alloy has a very good galling resistance and also offers a high retention of mechanical properties at elevated temperatures. The addition of Nickel increases the alloy strength without diminishing its excellent ductility, toughness and corrosion resistance.

AEPL produces C95500, C95410, C95800, AB-2, CB-333G, CB-334G, CuAl10Fe5Ni5, Nickel Aluminium Bronze alloy in the form of Certified Ingots weighing from 8 to 10 Kgs each.
AEPL has implemented a quality system for Copper Based Alloys where all processes are monitored from start to finish i.e. from procurement of raw material, their combination, manufacturing processes, measurement and chemical analysis. We maintain our own laboratory with calibrated equipments to ensure delivery of certified ingots as per International Standards and satisfy clients' requirements. The equipment includes Optical Emission Spectrometer which uses arc and spark excitation technology. Samples of test reports are available upon request.
AEPL manufactures and supplies Copper Alloys products to Domestic as well as International Markets. Located at a single site, our smaller foundries are equipped to use in-house certified ingots and create complex shapes of Copper alloy castings and turn them into finished components using Drilling, Grinding and CNC turning centres.
