The ability of a material to resist permanent indentation is known as hardness. Brinell Hardness Test During this test, an accurately controlled force is maintained when an indenter, generally a carbide ball, is forced into the test model for a specific period of time. Upon removal, it leaves an encircling indentation, the measurement of which […]

A pump is a device that moves fluids (liquids or gases), or sometimes slurries, by mechanical action, typically converted from electrical energy into Hydraulic energy. Pumps can be classified into three major groups according to the method they use to move the fluid: direct lift, displacement, and gravity pumps. A pump moves liquids or gases from a lower pressure to a higher pressure and […]
How to select the correct contract type that is most suitable for our requirement? Selecting correct contact form for a specific purchase agreement depends on various factors like availability and accuracy of pricing data, relative strength of buyer and seller and perceived risk and market competition.

Bronze is an alloy that consists primarily of copper with the addition of tin & sometime arsenic, phosphorus, aluminum, manganese, and silicon. All of these ingredients produce an alloy much harder than copper alone. Bronze is of dull-gold color. The difference between bronze and brass is that bronze will have faint rings on its surface. Bronze Applications […]
There are more than 400 copper alloys, each with a unique combination of properties, to suit many applications, manufacturing processes and environments. Pure copper has the best electrical and thermal conductivity of any commercial metal. Today, over half of the copper produced is used in electrical and electronic applications and this leads to a convenient classification […]
