A brass round bar is a long, cylindrical piece of brass that is commonly used in various applications, including mechanical components, decorative items, and industrial uses. Brass is an alloy primarily composed of copper and zinc, and it offers excellent machinability and corrosion resistance.
Brass round bars are used in a wide range of applications, including:
- Mechanical components: gears, lock components, and connectors
- Decorative purposes: ornamental projects and jewelry
- Marine applications: shafts and propellers due to their corrosion resistance to seawater
- Industrial uses: high-pressure applications, paper production, and nuclear power plants.
There are several grades of brass round bars, each suited for specific applications:
- 360 Brass: Known for its excellent machinability, used in gears, lock components, and ornamental projects.
- 385 Brass: Commonly used for machining different mechanical components.
- CZ121 Brass: Features excellent machinability and corrosion resistance, often used in valves, bearings, and fasteners.
Brass round bars possess several important properties:
- Corrosion resistance: Suitable for use in corrosive environments
- Machinability: Easy to drill, machine, and saw
- Aesthetic appeal: Resembles gold, making it ideal for decorative purposes
- Thermal stability and hardness: Suitable for high-pressure and high-temperature applications.
Brass round bars are typically manufactured by casting or kneading brass. The process involves mixing copper and zinc, sometimes with other elements like lead, to achieve the desired properties. The bars are then formed through processes such as forging, rolling, and bending.
Yes, brass round bars can be welded or soldered, although the ease of welding may vary depending on the specific grade of brass. For example, 360 brass offers fair forming and can be welded or soldered.
Brass round bars come in various sizes, typically measured by diameter and length. Common diameters range from 1/8 inch to 3 inches, with lengths often around 144 inches. Custom sizes may also be available upon request.
Brass round bars are highly resistant to seawater corrosion, making them ideal for marine applications such as shafts and propellers. Their durability and resistance to pitting and crevice corrosion ensure long-lasting performance in harsh marine environments.
Choosing the right brass round bar depends on the specific requirements of your project, including the desired properties, machinability, and environmental conditions. As a professional brass profile supplier, we can help you choose the grade and size that suits your needs.
