Copper And Brass Sales: A Blog About Metal And Processing

Có thể bạn quan tâm

Brass is a copper alloy that consists mainly of copper and zinc. The zinc provides the material with improved strength and ductility. Other elements may be added to this copper alloy that will produce a wide range of properties and a lot of variation in the color.

Cartridge Brass

C26000

C26000 Cartridge Brass is the most ductile of the brasses and is used in greater quantity than any other copper-zinc alloy. C26000 has excellent to good corrosion resistance in most environments, but is not suitable for use with certain materials, such as acetic acid, moist ammonia or ammonia compounds, hydrochloric acid and nitric acid.

Leaded Commerical Bronze

C31400

Leaded commercial bronze C31400 combines the natural corrosion resistance of C22000 with the machinability typical of leaded brasses. Like C22000, it is an alpha brass nominally composed of 89% copper and 9% zinc, but it also contains approximately 2% lead to impart free-cutting characteristics.

C33000

Formable and machineable yellow brass. Best used in minimal corrosive conditions using processes which include machining, piercing, forming and punching.

High Leaded Brass

C35300

C35300 high leaded brass has a slightly lower copper content than the C34000 series brasses, but of a copper content similar to free-cutting brass C36000. With approximately 61.5% copper, 36.5% zinc, and 2% lead, this alloy fulfills the need for a strong, hard brass with good machinability.

Free-Cutting Brass

C36000

Free Cutting Brass C36000 is nominally composed of 61.5% copper, 35.4% zinc, and 3.1% lead. It is the alloy most often used for continuous high-speed machining operations.

Free-Cutting Brass

C38500

This alloy is similar to C36000 Free Cutting Brass with the main difference being a slightly higher lead content in C36000 for better machinability. The machinability rating for C38500 is 90 compared to 100 for C36000.
