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
