1.1 This specification establishes the requirements for copper-alloy plate and sheet for pressure vessels, condensers, and heat exchangers. The following alloys are covered:

Copper AlloyPreviously Used Designation
C36500Leaded Muntz Metal
C44300Admirality, Arsenical
C44400Admirality, Antimonial
C44500Admirality, Phosphorized
C46400Naval Brass, Uninhibited
C46500Naval Brass, Arsenical
C61300Aluminum Bronze
C61400Aluminum Bronze D
C6300010 % Aluminum-Nickel Bronze
C632009 % Aluminum-Nickel Bronze
C7060090-10 Copper Nickel
C7062090-10 Copper Nickel -(modified for welding)
C7150070-30 Copper Nickel
C7152070-30 Copper Nickel-(modified for welding)
C72200. . .

1.2 The values stated in either inch-pound units or SI units are to be regarded separately as standard. Within the text, the SI units are shown in brackets. The values in each system are not exact equivalents; therefore, each system shall be used independently of the other. Combining values from the two systems may result in nonconformance with the specification.


This specification establishes the requirements for plates, sheets, and circles cut from plates and sheets made of UNS C36500, C44300, C44400, C44500, C46400, C46500, C61300, C61400, C63000, C63200, C70600, C70620, C71500, C71520, or C72200 copper alloy. These materials are recommended for use in pressure vessels, condensers, and heat exchangers. The materials are manufactured by either hot rolling or forging and finished by such cold working and annealing to produce products of the required dimensions and properties. Tempers available under this specification are as hot rolled and hot rolled and annealed. The products manufactured for ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel code applications must be certified to the hot rolled and annealed temper while all other products can either have hot rolled or hot rolled and annealed temper. This specification also contains information on the required material chemical compositions, densities, and tensile properties.
