In our life, there are also manufacturers of copper alloys. The shrapnel in our commonly used sockets is made of phosphor bronze. The oxidation resistance, hardness and toughness of phosphor bronze materials are suitable for the requirements of the shrapnel of the socket. Metal materials are also used in the production of sockets, pure copper.
Of course, these are compared with the more popular tin-phosphorus bronzes now. These properties of tin-phosphor bronze are better than pure copper. The most obvious is that the oxidation resistance is significantly improved, and the hardness and toughness are significantly improved. Generally, tin is used. Phosphor bronze shrapnels can easily be pulled and inserted more than 50,000 times, and some of them can even double their performance.
In short, the socket shrapnel is an important element directly related to the performance of the socket. We must not ignore the inspection when purchasing. In addition to paying attention to the shrapnel material, we must also check the thickness, workmanship, riveting, or integral molding of the shrapnel, which are also related. To socket performance and life.
