markb Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 I've been doing a little digging on nickel silver. Also known as german silver. I could be wrong so correct if so. German silver had or has 20% nickel. The spec. sheet on C752 lists 16.5 to 19.5 for nickel. C752 65% cu 18% N 17% ZN C770 55% cu 18% N 27% ZN Many alloys of NS, c752 being a common one for art uses, forming jewelry etc. http://www.olinbrass.com/companies/fineweld/Literature/Documents/Alloy%20C752%20Data%20Sheet.pdf Some people have commented that the german silver is more silvery colored and the 18% is more yellow. I'm wondering if the C770 is more silvery colored than C752 because of the added Zn and less copper? I will probably buy some of each and try it out. Please correct any information you find inaccurate here and add any you might have. Thanks MBehnke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
