COMMON USES: TEMCO Alloy C65500 is one of several silicon bronze alloys which are produced with close control of alloying
elements, including trace elements, at our in-house casting facility. The close control of the chemistry is necessary to control the electrical
conductivity within a very narrow range. This alloy is specifically produced for high resistance rotor bar, but is also used in applications
where high strength is required. Consult our Sales Department to discuss your specific application.
