Products Description
Manufactured through our continuous sintering and rolling line, our Bimetallic Clad Steel Plate permanently fuses a low-carbon or alloy steel substrate with a CuPb10Sn10 or CuSn6Zn6Pb3 bronze cladding. We supply this versatile Bimetallic Clad Steel Plate as premium raw stock for machinery manufacturers producing hydraulic side plates, valve discs, heavy wear strips, and sliding guide plates. Achieving a metallurgical bond strength of ≥150 MPa that easily passes 180° bend testing without cracking or delamination, our Bimetallic Clad Steel Plate allows direct downstream stamping, bending, and CNC milling while slashing raw copper costs compared to monolithic bronze plates.
Application Scenarios
- Raw material stock for manufacturing hydraulic pump/motor side plates, valve plates, and bushings.
- Fabrication of sliding wear plates and guides in machine tools, presses, and heavy vehicles.
- Mass production of bimetallic thrust washers, wear blocks, and anti-friction assemblies.

FAQ
Q: Will the bronze layer peel or blister during cold stamping and punching operations?
A: No. Sintered and diffusion-rolled at elevated temperatures, the metallurgical bond strength exceeds 150 MPa, allowing aggressive deep drawing, stamping, and 180° bending without layer separation.
Q: How are raw bimetal plates packaged for sea freight protection?
A: Plates are coated with rust-preventive oil, interleaved with moisture-barrier paper, banded onto heavy steel pallets, and sealed within multi-layer waterproof plastic wrap.
