B20 cymbals are the cymbals with the largest bronze content on the market. It is a mixture of metals, so B20 is an alloy. Consisting of 80% copper and 20% tin, handmade B20 cymbals represent the supreme discipline of cymbal forging. A majority of professional cymbals are made of this very alloy. The forging process begins with a heated piece of metal, which is brought into its typical shape by rolling and hammering. In addition, the top of the cymbal is usually punched in by machine. This is followed by painstaking manual labor, as each cymbal is individually hammered, giving it a unique pattern and profile.
