Corrosion-resistant, cast (and wrought) copper-nickel alloys containing special amounts of nickel, chromium and silicon are characterized by high-yield strengths-e.g., from about 40,000 and upwards of 50,000 p.s.i. This compares with substantially less than 40,000 p.s.i. for conventional copper-nickel alloys in commercial use. Heat treatment not required to develop strength; thus, associated problems are obviated. |
