Leaded Brass

Lead increases the machinability of brass as well as increasing its strength and resistance to corrosion. The addition of lead also seals shrinkage pores to provide pressure tightness. Brasses can contain up to 3.5 percent in lead contents, and are classified as low, medium, or high-leaded. Leaded brass may be used to make screws, valves, fittings, bearings, specialty fasteners, architectural hardware, and general-purpose machine parts.

Lead Free Brass

Lead free brass possess relatively good corrosion resistance, moderately high strength, and in some forms, it has very good ductility. Its hot forms are strong. It also called Muntz metal. It is available mainly in 60/40, 63/37, 65/35 & 70/30 Cu/Zn ratio. A ductile alloy is suitable for blanking, riveting, bending, hot forging & pressing.

Free Machining Brass

Brass is essentially copper alloyed with zinc. It is strong but easy to form, stamp or draw which make it a common choice for a broad spectrum of applications. By varying the amount of zinc content, it is possible to achieve a variety of characteristics including different levels of corrosion resistance, ductility and suitability for machining.

Forging Brass

Forging Brass is an alloy of copper and Zinc, in properties which can be varied to achieve varying mechanical and electrical properties. It is a substitution alloy: atoms of the two constituents may replace each other within the same crystal structure. Forging brass can be easily shaped. Forging brass has high thermal conductivity and have excellent hot forgeability properties. They are available in the form of rod.

Silicon Red Brass

Lead free brass possess relatively good corrosion resistance, moderately high strength, and in some forms, it has very good ductility. Its hot forms are strong. It also called Muntz metal. It is available mainly in 60/40, 63/37, 65/35 & 70/30 Cu/Zn ratio. A ductile alloy is suitable for blanking, riveting, bending, hot forging & pressing.
