Common Alloys and Specifications of CNC Machining Brass
Brass is one of the easiest materials to machine in CNC manufacturing, it is also valued because of its advantageous characteristics and properties including bright appearance, low friction, corrosion resistance, wear resistance, and good overall conductivity. Changing the content of zinc and copper will create a series of brass alloys with different properties.
| Properties | A relatively low melting point, easy to cast and machine, resistant to corrosion and wear, a good conductor of heat and electricity |
| Applications (Brass CNC Parts) | Locks, bearings, gears, valves, brackets, braces, pins, bolts, screws, builders hardware, etc. |
| Wall Thickness | As low as 0.03” or determined by the ratio of wall thickness to planar dimension |
| Maximum Size | Determined by machines and complexity of the part |
| Tolerances | As low as 0.005” or determined by the alloy |
| Lead Time | As fast as 3 days, longer for complex custom brass parts |
Alloy C260 (Bras 260 Cartridge Brass)
Brass 260, also known as yellow brass, cartridge brass and alloy 260, is mainly alloyed with copper and zinc, it has the highest ductility of the yellow brass series, excellent cold workability, and good corrosion resistance in most environments except acetic acid and some certain materials. Its workability makes C260 brass can be fabricated with cutting, forming, bending, and more processes. Typical applications of C260 brass include ammunition components, fasteners, lamp fixtures, locks, plugs, etc.
| Density | Hardness | Yield Tensile Strength | Fatigue Strength | Elongation at Break |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8.53 g/cm^3 | 53 Brinell | 75 MPa | 90 MPa | 68% |
Alloy C360 (Brass 360 or Free Cutting Brass)
Alloy C360 is referred o as a free-cutting brass with the highest machinability among all of the copper alloys, it also has exceptional strength and good corrosion resistance. Brass 360 is usually used for decorative purposes because of its smooth surface finish and gold-like appearance. The mechanical properties of C360 also make it suit for functional products and rigorous use.
| Density | Hardness | Yield Tensile Strength | Fatigue Strength | Elongation at Break |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 8.49 g/cm^3 | 63 to 130 Brinell | 124 to 310 MPa | 138 MPa | 53% |
