Bronze is an alloy consisting mainly copper but the addition of other metals produces an alloy much harder than plain copper. Bronze resists corrosion and metal fatigue better and conducts heat and electricity, better than most steels.

Hi
Bronze is the description given to any alloy which is 85-95% copper with the remainder being made up of tin or arsenic with the possibility of other metals being present in reduced amounts.
The oldest tin alloy bronzes data back around 4500BC and were found at an archaeological site, Pločnik in Serbia. 

To this very day, bronze has a wide variety of applications which see it in everyday use.

Aluminium bronze is very hard and as such widely used in springs, bushings bearings and car gearbox bearings as well as being common in the bearings of smaller electric motors.   Phosphor bronze (2.5% to 10% tin and up to 1% phosphorous) in particular is well suited to more precision grade springs and bearings.


Unlike stainless steel, bronze will not generate sparks when struck against hard surfaces. This property makes it ideal for use in hammers, mallets and other tools used in environments containing flammable vapours, as oil rigs do.

Phosphor bronze is also used for ships’ propellers, the largest such example being that of the Emma Maersk cargo ship which weighs in at 130 tonnes and is made of a single piece of bronze made up of an alloy of copper, aluminium, nickel, iron and manganese alloy.
