Chemical Composition
compared to C36000
* Cu-Zn alloys containing more than 15% Zn are susceptible to a de-alloying process called dezincification “D.Z.R.” or white rust, where the selective removal of Zn leaves a relatively porous and weak layer of copper and copper oxide. This is also considered as stress cracking and creates catastrophic failures.
contains less than 15% zinc, and therefore is a true DZR Brass, with guaranteed corrosion resistance.
Distinct advantages of free machining dzr “Lead free” commercial brass
· 25-40% Higher yield strength than C360 Brass
· Significantly higher elongation over C360 Brass
· 45% Higher electrical conductivity over C360 Brass
· Excellent plating characteristics
· Excellent thread rolling characteristics
· A true DZR Brass with less than 15% Zinc
· Readily recyclable - No segregation required for leaded Brass Alloys
· Small sizes of diameter and hex bars available, plus hollow bars and wire sizes
· Extended tool life due to excellent machinability
· No tooling change outs required or resetting of CNC machines - Use the same setting as regular leaded brass
· Wire in coils as small as 0.062” (1.6mm) diameter +/-0.0005 tolerances
