    Can anyone inlighten me as to what material 'Nibral' is. So far i have managed to find out it is a composite of Nickle, aluminium and bronze but if anyone knows, could someone please explain a bit about them.
    Thankyou

    1) It is an metal alloy, not a composite.

    2) Go to www.copper.org and look up "nickel aluminum bronze". You want the casting alloy c95xxx.
