Detailed Engineering Specifications

Trusted by engineers across multiple sectors, this brass stock sheet offers a nominal thickness of 0.017 inches, precisely manufactured to a tolerance of +/- 0.001 inches. The sheet measures a full 23 inches in length and 23 inches in width, providing ample material for intricate designs and larger components. Composed of a standard brass alloy (e.g., UNS C26000), it exhibits a tensile strength typically ranging from 45,000 to 60,000 psi and excellent electrical conductivity, approximately 28% of annealed copper. This material's inherent corrosion resistance and ease of fabrication make it suitable for a broad spectrum of uses, from electrical connectors and musical instruments to decorative elements and specialized tooling.

Installation Procedure

1. Ensure a clean and stable cutting surface. 2. Accurately measure and mark cut lines using appropriate scribing tools. 3. Employ a precision cutting method (e.g., shear, laser, waterjet) suitable for thin brass sheet, maintaining edge squareness. 4. Deburr all cut edges thoroughly to prevent snagging and ensure safety.
