C67500
C675 exhibits commendable torsional properties and offers solid general corrosion resistance. Manganese bronze, in general, is capable of withstanding exposure to dry gases, dilute alkalies, sulfides, as well as most organic solvents and acids. However, it’s important to note that C675 may not be suitable for contact with ammonia, mercury, and the majority of chlorine gases, and such interactions should be avoided.
