BS 2872:1989 is a British Standard that specifies the requirements for copper and copper alloy forging stock and forgings. It covers aspects such as chemical composition, tensile properties, and other characteristics for both wrought and cast forms. The standard applies to materials with a diameter greater than 6 mm. It includes various copper alloys, such as brasses, aluminium bronzes, and copper-nickel alloys, providing nominal compositions for these materials. The aim is to ensure that the materials meet specific mechanical and chemical standards suitable for forging applications.
