Tellurium Bearing

Material No. Unified Numbering System (UNS): C14500

Chemical Composition

Element Cu(1,2,3) P Te
Min (%) 0.004 0.4
Max (%) Rem 0.012 0.7
  • Cu value includes Te+P.
  • Includes oxygen-free or deoxidized grades with deoxidizers (such as phosphorus boron lithium or others in an amount agreed upon.
  • Cu value includes Ag.

Tellurium Bearing Alloy is called a "free machining alloy". This is an alloy that, when subjected to machining operations, consumes lower power, gives better surface finish, produces small metal chips, and results in longer tool life.

Common Fabrication Processes

  • Forging
  • Extruding
  • Drawing
  • Machining
