Characteristics inherent in the aluminum bronzes includes excellent strength, high corrosion resistance and availability in a variety of grades and forms.

Aluminum bronzes have high strengths (comparable to medium-carbon steel), substantial hardness in the as-cast state. Aluminum Bronze has excellent corrosion resistance properties, and Aluminum Bronze is available in a variety of grades and forms. Aluminum Bronze possess good anti-frictional characteristics, and resist scaling and oxidation at elevated temperatures. Aluminum bronzes can be readily hot worked, possess good cold forming properties, and respond to a form of precipitation hardening.
