Detailed Engineering Specifications

Precision-manufactured to tight tolerances, this 0.016-inch thick brass stock sheet measures 15 inches in length and 17 inches in width. Composed of a specific brass alloy (e.g., UNS C26000 cartridge brass), it exhibits excellent machinability, ductility, and inherent non-sparking properties, crucial for hazardous environments. Its high electrical conductivity also makes it suitable for specialized safety-related electrical components. The consistent material density and uniform grain structure ensure predictable performance under mechanical stress and thermal cycling, vital for robust safety apparatus.
