C46600 naval brass
 

C46600, also called Admiralty Brass / CuZn23Al3 / CW452K, is a high-performance copper-zinc-aluminum alloy engineered for marine, offshore, and industrial applications. It combines excellent corrosion resistance in seawater, good mechanical strength, and stress corrosion cracking (SCC) resistance, making it ideal for propellers, pump shafts, condenser tubes, valves, and marine hardware. C46600 is supplied in rods, bars, sheets, plates, hollow bars, and forged components, meeting ASTM B111, ASTM B135, and EN 1982 standards.
