BR6
Bronze for investment casting with 6% Tin.
The BR6 bronze for investment casting is an alloy composed of approximately 6% tin, characterized by a distinctive warm red color, particularly appreciated for aesthetic and decorative applications.
Thanks to its composition, the BR6 offers good castability and reliable performance in investment casting processes, allowing the production of pieces with well-defined details and homogeneous surfaces.
Compared to bronzes with higher tin percentages, the BR6 has a lower cost, representing an economically advantageous solution without compromising general performance excessively. Although it offers lower mechanical resistance compared to more tin-rich alloys, it still maintains good workability and stability characteristics.
Easy to work with in the subsequent phases after fusion, it lends itself to finishing operations such as polishing and patination, enhancing its natural red tone.
The BR6 is therefore ideal for decorative items, decorative components, and productions where a good balance between quality, aesthetic performance, and cost containment is required.
