Abstract
Gun metal also known as red brass is an alloy of copper, tin, zinc and lead. Literature describes pure gun metalas an alloy of copper (85%), tin (5%), zinc (5%) and lead (5%). An attempt is made to vary the percentage of lead in thegun metal alloy and investigate the resulting micro-structure and mechanical properties. The new alloy exhibits goodvickers hardness and ultimate tensile strength. Hence, there is good scope of using this new alloy alloy in wear resistantapplications.
