These brass round bars are manufactured from a brass alloy CZ121 / CW614N that is primarily used for machining. Each bar has Lead added to the composition to improve machinability. The Lead remains insoluble in the microstructure of the brass and the soft particles act as chip breakers. Available in two diametersm with both products measuring 500mm in length.
Features and Benefits
• The most widely used of all the brasses due to its suitability for high speed machining operations and also the manufacture of intricate parts
• The highest machinability of any copper alloy, excellent hot formability and good corrosion resistance
• Available in two sizes to suit your requirements
• Both products possess good conductivity, corrosion resistance and spark resistance for all around durability
Typical Applications
• Typically used for a wide variety of machined components made on high speed lathes including screws, bolts, nuts, bushing, pins, washers,
butts, hinges and also locks and components for watches
Notes
• Cold working is poor and is not recommended with these bars
