| This heat-treated alloy is the ultimate in high-strength bronzes requiring good bearing characteristics and exceptional wear resistance. It has greater toughness than grade AMPCO 18.22 and better physical properties than grades AMPCO 18 or AMPCO 18.136. Its exceptional proportional limit gives it a maximum resistance to distortion, enabling the designer to take full advantage of its high physical properties. Applications: AMPCO 18.23 gives a successful performance under heavy loads and impact conditions and makes it a preferred material for heavy-duty worm gears and similar applications. |
