Detailed Engineering Specifications

Built to exacting engineering tolerances, this brass stock sheet boasts a nominal thickness of 0.244 inches (6.20 mm), with a standard dimensional tolerance of +/- 0.005 inches. The sheet measures 28 inches (711.2 mm) in width and 40 inches (1016 mm) in length. Composed primarily of Copper and Zinc, its alloy composition provides superior corrosion resistance and inherent durability, making it suitable for environments where galvanic corrosion is a concern. The material's high tensile strength (typically 300-400 MPa) and yield strength (typically 150-250 MPa) ensure reliable load-bearing capacity in structural bracing and suspension systems.
