Detailed Engineering Specifications

Engineered for reliability and performance, this brass stock sheet boasts a robust 0.124" (3.15 mm) thickness, ideal for applications requiring substantial material engagement. Its dimensions of 48" (1219 mm) by 32" (813 mm) provide ample surface area for fabrication and large-scale projects. The inherent properties of brass, including its excellent malleability, corrosion resistance, and thermal conductivity, make it an optimal choice for abrasive media backing, polishing substrates, and custom tooling where a non-sparking, ductile, and aesthetically pleasing material is paramount. This specification ensures consistent material integrity for repeatable results in precision surface finishing.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using the wrong cutting tool for brass, leading to burrs and uneven edges.Employ high-speed steel or carbide-tipped cutting tools specifically designed for non-ferrous metals, ensuring proper blade geometry and coolant application.
Applying excessive heat during fabrication, which can alter brass properties and cause discoloration.Utilize controlled heat sources and minimize direct flame exposure; consider alternative joining methods like brazing or mechanical fastening when high temperatures are a concern.

Common Applications

  • Abrasive media backing for belt sanders and disc grinders
  • Substrates for polishing compounds and buffing wheels
  • Custom fixture and jig fabrication for surface finishing operations

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses and gloves, when handling brass stock.
  • Ensure adequate ventilation when grinding or polishing brass to avoid inhalation of fine particles.
