Bronze Fasteners
Bronze fasteners offer excellent corrosion resistance, strength and reliability in industrial, marine and electrical applications. Often confused with brass, bronze is a copper-based alloy with higher tin content, providing improved durability and performance in demanding environments. We supply a full range of bronze screws, bronze bolts, bronze nuts and washers, available from stock or manufactured to order in specialist bronze alloys.
Bronze Screws, Bolts, Nuts & Washers
What are bronze fasteners?
Modern bronze typically consists of around 88% copper and 12% tin, with some alloys containing additional elements such as zinc, aluminium, nickel, phosphorus or silicon. These variations enhance properties including corrosion resistance, conductivity, strength and wear performance.
Bronze fasteners offer:
- Excellent corrosion resistance, particularly in marine and coastal environments
- Good strength and long-term durability
- Non-magnetic properties (depending on alloy composition)
- Good thermal and electrical conductivity
When exposed to air, the copper content oxidises to form a protective surface layer that helps prevent internal corrosion. However, prolonged exposure to chloride solutions can lead to bronze disease, which should be considered when selecting the correct bronze alloy.
Bronze fasteners are produced in a variety of alloy types to suit different applications and environments. Common bronze fastener materials include Phosphor Bronze and Silicon Bronze, each offering distinct performance characteristics in terms of strength, corrosion resistance and wear.
