Detailed Engineering Specifications

Built to exacting engineering tolerances, this 0.443" thick brass stock sheet measures 19" in length and 18" in width. Composed of a high-purity brass alloy (typically 60-70% copper, 30-40% zinc), it exhibits excellent conductivity, non-sparking properties, and moderate tensile strength. Its formability allows for intricate shaping and bending, making it suitable for a wide range of custom component manufacturing, electrical grounding applications, and decorative metalwork where durability and aesthetic appeal are paramount.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using standard steel cutting tools without proper lubrication, leading to premature tool wear.Employ cutting tools specifically designed for non-ferrous metals like brass, and use cutting fluid to maintain tool longevity and achieve cleaner cuts.
Applying excessive force during bending, resulting in cracking or deformation.Perform bending operations slowly and incrementally, utilizing appropriate bending dies or machinery to avoid material stress and potential failure.

Common Applications

  • Custom gasket fabrication
  • Electrical contact components
  • Decorative architectural elements
  • Marine hardware
  • Specialty tooling components

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment (PPE), including safety glasses and gloves, when handling and fabricating brass.
  • Brass dust can be an irritant; ensure adequate ventilation or respiratory protection when grinding or machining.
