Detailed Engineering Specifications

Specified by design engineers worldwide, this brass stock sheet is manufactured to exacting tolerances. Its 0.052" (1.32mm) nominal thickness, combined with the inherent strength and machinability of brass (typically UNS C26000 cartridge brass or equivalent), ensures reliable performance in diverse environments. The 24"x24" dimensions provide ample material for custom fabrication, prototyping, and production runs. Brass's excellent conductivity and resistance to tarnishing make it suitable for electrical components, decorative elements, and applications requiring a balance of formability and longevity.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using inadequate cutting tools for brass, leading to jagged edges or material distortion.Utilize sharp, high-quality cutting blades specifically designed for metal fabrication, or consult a metalworking professional.
Failing to deburr cut edges, creating a safety hazard and potential for material damage.Always use a deburring tool or file to smooth all cut edges after fabrication.

Common Applications

  • Electrical connectors and contacts
  • Decorative metalwork and trim
  • Prototyping and custom fabrication
  • Heat exchangers and plumbing components
  • Instrument panels and signage

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE) including safety glasses, gloves, and hearing protection when cutting or fabricating.
  • Ensure proper ventilation when working with brass, especially during cutting or grinding operations.
