Alloy C151 was developed by Olin Brass for specific applications demanding high electrical conductivity and excellent resistance to
stress relaxation at elevated temperatures. As a precipitation hardened alloy these properties are combined with good strength and
bend formability to make Alloy C151 a material that meets the demands of a wide variety of applications including electronic devices,
power switching systems and automotive hybrid electrical systems. For more information contact Olin Brass Market Development
