Tiger Bronze
OVERVIEW
Tiger Bronze is a versatile, all-purpose bronze bushing alloy that can be easily machined down to a wide array of machined parts, component, bushing, bronze sleeve and guide. Pressure tight properties make this the ideal bronze for marine application or pump and valve parts. Tiger Bronze is very cost efficient with a wide selection of sizes (over >300 standard sizes) combined with moderate strength, easily machined and adapts to prevailing shaft condition makes this the workhorse among bronze bushing alloys. Tiger Bronze is the preferred bronze alloy replacement for OEM machine parts due to its versatility, reliability and cost efficiency
