| Phosphor
Bronze: In electronic, electrical and
automotive precision components, cost-effective phosphor bronze is often the alloy of
choice because of its inherent resistance to stress relaxation, which is defined by the ASTM
as "the time dependent decrease in stress in a solid under given constant
constraints." That means that connectors stamped out of phosphor bronze exhibit
superior performance over time. When produced to The Miller Companys exacting quality
standards, phosphor bronze has consistent mechanical properties with minimal variability,
optimum yield strengths, and excellent formability.
Miller material
provides consistency within lot and lot-to-lot, ensuring a high degree of repeatability
when formed and processed in high-speed press and assembly lines. In regard to precision
thickness and width over the entire length of the coil, no customer in the world is as
demanding as we are on ourselves.
Sample
Applications:
- Electronic: computers,
telecommunications (connectors, terminals)
- Electrical: switch parts,
terminals, fuse clips
- Hardware: bellows,
diaphragms, fasteners, sleeve bushings, blades
Nickel
Silver: Nickel silver alloys offer impressive
strength, stress relaxation resistance, solderability, and shelf life.
They are also
extremely resistant to corrosion and will not easily tarnish. Nickel silver alloys from
The Miller Company are produced according to the same quality standards as our phosphor
bronze. As a result, you can depend on consistent, reliable performance over time.
Sample
Applications:
- Electronic: computers,
telecommunications (connectors)
- Hardware: springs
- Optical Goods: camera parts
and eyeglass frames
- Musical Instruments
- Tokens and coinage
Leaded
Nickel Silver: An alloy used primarily for the
production of key blanks and musical instrument parts, leaded nickel silver provides good
strength characteristics, resistance to tarnishing, and excellent machinability.
Leaded
nickel silver alloys not only wear well but look good. Their appealing colors
adds the aesthetic appeal of quality and substance to the products in which they are used.
The Miller Company
has developed a process and formulation for leaded nickel silver that
results in a very
consistent product, which in turn means a high yield for stamping and forming
operations.
Sample
Applications:
- Hardware: key blanks, lock
hardware, watch plates, watch parts
- Musical Instrument parts
