admiralty brass pipe vs naval brass pipe

UNS C44300 Admiralty Brass Tube PDF

 

Admiralty brass and naval brass

Admiralty brass and naval brass are similar alloys, but admiralty brass has a higher resistance to dezincification due to a tin addition, making it ideal for heat exchangers and condenser tubing in corrosive environments. Naval brass is generally stronger and harder, and is better for applications like structural components, fasteners, and marine hardware where strength is the priority.

 

admiralty brass pipe vs naval brass pipe

Feature Admiralty Brass Naval Brass
Primary Composition Copper, zinc, and tin Copper, zinc, and tin
Key Advantage Superior resistance to dezincification and excellent corrosion resistance in seawater Higher strength and hardness
Best For Heat exchangers, condenser tubes, and other applications in corrosive water Structural components, fasteners (nuts, bolts, rivets), marine hardware, propeller shafts, and condenser plates
Strength 310–380 MPa 250–300 MPa

Feature Admiralty Brass Pipe (C44300) Naval Brass Pipe (C46400)
Primary UNS Alloy C44300 C46400
Typical Composition 71% Cu, 28% Zn, 1% Sn 60% Cu, 39% Zn, 1% Sn
Main Purpose Heat Transfer (Condenser/Heat Exchanger Tubes) Structural/Mechanical (Shafts, Valves, Fasteners)
Property Emphasis Superior corrosion resistance, good thermal conductivity Higher strength, good wear resistance, decent corrosion resistance
Common Pipe Use Yes, the standard material for this application. Less common for thin-wall heat transfer tubes; used for heavier-wall pipe fittings and components.
