Melting Point of Common Copper Alloys

The melting point of copper alloys can vary depending on the specific alloy composition. Copper itself has a melting point of approximately 1085 degrees Celsius (1984 degrees Fahrenheit). However, when copper is mixed with other elements to make alloys like brass or bronze, the melting point can change.

The tables below provide a comprehensive list of melting points for common copper alloys at 1 atmospheric (atm) pressure. (1 atm = 101,325 Pa)
