C68700 Aluminum Brass Tube PDF
Products Description
C68700 aluminum brass is a copper-zinc alloy enhanced with aluminum and a corrosion inhibitor to deliver exceptional resistance to high-velocity seawater and brackish water. Known for its strength and durability, this alloy is engineered to withstand impingement attack and erosion-corrosion in aggressive cooling environments.
Inhibited aluminum brass tubes (C68700) are widely used in condenser systems, especially in marine, power generation, and desalination settings, where water velocity and salt content challenge the long-term performance of standard copper alloys.
