Supplier Guidance

Need a U.S. material match for CuSn10-C?

CuSn10-C is a high-tin bronze callout. Public cross-reference data points first toward ASTM C90500 / SAE 62; C90300 is a nearby U.S. Navy G bronze and should only be considered after drawing review.

Use this page to start the sourcing conversation, then send the drawing, dimensions, quantity, and operating conditions so the final material can be checked before production.

Material Data to Review Before Quoting

This table gives your engineering, purchasing, or quality team a fast way to compare the source callout with the U.S. material starting point. It supports RFQ review; it does not replace the approved drawing or material specification.

Item to compare CuSn10-C C90300
Copper (Cu) 88.0-90.0% 86.0-89.0%
Tin (Sn) 9.0-11.0% 7.5-9.0%
Zinc (Zn) 0.5% max. 3.0-5.0%
Lead (Pb) 1.0% max. 0.30% max.
Practical conclusion Closer to ASTM C90500 / SAE 62 in public cross-reference data C90300 is not a direct substitute; use only after drawing review

Where This Cross-Reference Helps

This page helps when a purchase order lists CuSn10-C but the supplier needs a U.S. ASTM-style callout for quoting cast bronze parts.

If your print uses CuSn10-C, include the full drawing, tolerances, quantity, required supply form, and inspection notes with the RFQ. That lets us quote the material and manufacturing route with fewer back-and-forth questions.

Related Specifications You May See

The same material family may also appear under these names or standards: CuSn10Zn2, CC481K, CuSn10-C, ZCuSn10Zn2, CAC402, CuSn10Zn2, BS1400 PB1, PB1.

If one of these appears on your drawing or purchase record, include it with the RFQ. It helps us understand the original specification and avoid quoting a material that only looks similar on paper.

Before You Substitute the Material

Confirm whether the drawing requires cast or wrought material, then check zinc, lead, mechanical properties, and service conditions before substituting.

Cross-reference charts are helpful for purchasing and maintenance teams, but they do not replace a formal material specification, mill certificate, or customer-approved drawing.

Available Forms

Common supply forms for C90300

Once the material match looks right, the next question is usually shape and machining route. Precision Bronze can quote C90300 as standard stock or finished parts depending on the drawing, size, tolerance, and quantity.
