SPECIFICATIONS
AUFHAUSER
AM-2 is an aluminum bronze alloy wire manufactured exclusively
for flame spraying. AM-2 is distinct from other aluminum
bronze alloys in that the Fe content is higher and more
suitable fro spraying. Primarily used for overlaying bearings
and wear-resistant surfaces. AM-2 is stronger and harder
than other bronzes. The wire produces dense coatings with
very good wear-resistance. Easy to machine to an excellent
finish.
APPLICATIONS
Use
AM-2 for all general metallizing work with bronze. Typical
applications include: bronze castings, bushings, press rams,
pump impellers, ship propellers, plungers and many others.
