Leaded Gunmetal Bronze Hollow Round Bar LG2 Imperial

LG2 Bronze is one of the most used grades of bronze in the industry. It has medium strength, excellent machining properties, and is suitable for bearings, gears, and other components used in relatively light-duty applications.

Although LG2 is often referred to as phosphor bronze, it is leaded gunmetal. Only the “PB" group of bronzes (PB1, PB2, etc) can truly be called phosphor bronze.

Manufactured using finely controlled continuous or centrifugal casting techniques to ensure that hardness and strength are superior to sand-casting methods. This also means that the material has a fine-grain structure and is free from porosity.
