Detailed Engineering Specifications

Manufactured under strict quality controls, this brass stock sheet boasts a nominal thickness of 0.731 inches, with precise dimensions of 35 inches in length and 40 inches in width. Composed of a high-copper alloy (typically C36000 free-machining brass or equivalent), it offers excellent machinability, good corrosion resistance, and moderate strength. This composition makes it ideal for components subjected to fluctuating pressures and temperatures, such as heat exchanger plates, valve bodies, and regulator diaphragms.

Common Mistakes & How to Avoid Them

❌ Mistake✅ Correct Approach
Using a lower-grade brass with insufficient corrosion resistance for the intended environment.Verify the brass alloy grade meets the specific chemical and thermal demands of the application before selection.
Inadequate support leading to deformation under pressure or temperature stress.Ensure the supporting structure provides sufficient rigidity and load-bearing capacity for the operational stresses.

Common Applications

  • Heat Exchanger Components
  • Pressure Vessel Linings
  • Regulator Housings

⚠️ Engineering Warnings

  • Avoid exposure to aggressive acidic or alkaline environments which can lead to dezincification.
  • Ensure proper handling to prevent accidental damage or deformation of the sheet.
