Copper alloy, the elements of which have the following mass fractions:46% to 53.5% copper (Cu);0% to 1.0% aluminum (Al);0% to 1.40% lead (Pb);0% to 0.2% iron (Fe);0% to 0.4% tin (Sn);0% to 0.0002% boron (B);0% to 0.2% arsenic (As); andremainder zinc (Zn). In addition, a use of a corresponding copper alloy for an additive manufacturing process, a sanitary fitting (1) with a corresponding copper alloy, and a method for producing a sanitary fitting (1) from a corresponding copper alloy are proposed.
