Questions & Answers

What is the difference between bronze and phosphor bronze, and how do you tell the two apart?

Bronze is a general term for an alloy made up of copper and tin (along with a few other elements). Phosphor bronze is bronze that has had a small amount of phosphorus added to it (usually a percent) to improve its mechanical properties.

Is this a spring, a hard, a half-hard, or a soft?

Although the material is stiff, it is also flexible. Aluminum is stiff and brittle, but this isn't the case.

What is the measurement for thickness?

It's a little more substantial than regular paper.

I'm looking for a metal strip that can bend but won't fold in on itself, instead returning to its original shape. Is this a feasible option? Do you have any more ideas? Thanks! ?

Yes, this is ideal for that purpose.

Selected User Reviews For K&S Precision Metals 16053 Phosphor Bronze Sheet Metal Rack, 0.008" Thickness x 6" Width x 12" Length, 3 pcs per car, Made in USA

THE DESCRIPTION IS INACCURATE: THIS IS A ONE-PIECE SET, NOT A THREE-PIECE SET
4/5

Aside from that, it's exactly what it says. PLEASE: ADD "ONE PIECE 12X6X" TO THE DESCRIPTION. phosphor bronze sheet 008 3-D printing is available in another listing. Piece orders are welcome! " I was expecting this to be a single piece, so I assumed the description was incorrect. br>I'm making shims out of this. A utility knife won't cut it because it's too thick, but good scissors will - Overkill with the tin snips. It's for a breech shim that I originally made out of aluminum sheet. with a knife, I was able to shape around curves and odd angles - Just keep that in mind. The only negative aspect is that the description is incorrect: For $7, you can get *ONE* PIECE. xx - This is understandable. If you look a little harder, you'll find a 3-star hotel. For around $16, you can get a piece. Further down the list, at 00: SO. CHANGE THE DESCRIPTION OF THE PRODUCT.

Springy and easy to cut, but I wish it came in three sheets like the description
3/5

It would have been better if the number of sheets listed in the description had been accurate, but luckily one sheet sufficed. For my 8th wedding anniversary, I made a bronze roast. Scissors are useful for cutting materials. It's a little springy, so it's a little more difficult to work with than copper, but that's to be expected.

Metal smithing is a breeze with this tool
5/5

Arts and crafts are two types of art. For my art and craft projects, this bronze sheet is ideal. For my home decor and wearable art pieces, I use bronze and anneal, for example. Using metal-cutting shears, the bronze can be easily cut and shaped. The sheet is the perfect thickness for jewelry as well as home decor. I'll be repurchasing this product because I've used up all of the sheets.

Amazon should change the title to "One Piece" instead of "Three Pieces
3/5

" Enough to make shims for an old engine oil pump with varying diameters. This is going to get me going in the right direction. Should have bought locally and gotten more quantity for the same price. br>Description stated "3 per car," which is comparable to local quantity.

Making replacement lamps is a breeze with this material
5/5

contacts in a socket I have a valuable instrument that I can't replace. Contacts on panel lamp sockets were broken. I used this sheet to make a perfect replacement for the contact. I still have enough materials to make a few hundred more.

Only one sheet of paper is required
3/5

Although it says three pieces, there is only one sheet. The metal, on the other hand, is attractive and will be useful in my jewelry-making.

Knife washers are small pieces of metal that are used to keep knives in place
5/5

The quality is excellent. It's what I'm using to make my own folding knife washers, and it's working great. With thicker scissors, cutting is a breeze.
