SAE660 Bronze Tube 38.1mm OD x 25.4mm ID | Mill Finish | 6.4mm Wall Thickness | Fair Corrosion Resistance | Poor Weldability | 6.76kg/m | Durable Bronze Tubing - Linear Metre

The SAE660 Bronze Tube, measuring 38.1mm outside diameter (OD) and 25.4mm inside diameter (ID), is a premium product designed to meet the rigorous demands of various industrial and engineering applications. Made from SAE660 bronze, known for its excellent wear resistance and machinability, this tube is ideal for applications where strength and durability are paramount.

Key Features

• Material Composition: Constructed from SAE660 bronze, this tube offers notable properties, including fair corrosion resistance. It is well-suited for applications that encounter moderate exposure to moisture or non-aggressive chemicals, allowing it to maintain its integrity over time.

• Dimensions and Wall Thickness: With a 6.4mm wall thickness, this bronze tube strikes the perfect balance between strength and lightweight construction. It ensures structural stability, making it capable of withstanding heavy loads or high-pressure applications while remaining easy to work with. The 38.1mm outer diameter and 25.4mm inner diameter provide a robust, practical structure for diverse usage.

• Finish: The tube features a mill finish, providing a clean and smooth surface that simplifies handling during installation and assembly. Its finish also enhances its aesthetic appeal, which can be beneficial for visible applications in construction or architecture.

• Weldability: This tube has poor weldability, which means that while welding is possible, other joining methods, such as mechanical fastening, may be more effective. This characteristic is important to consider when planning for installation, as it can influence the choice of assembly technique.

• Corrosion Resistance: Offering fair corrosion resistance, the SAE660 bronze tube is an excellent choice for environments that require moderate protection from rust and corrosion. This property ensures its longevity in various operational conditions, including those in marine, automotive, or general manufacturing industries.
