Brass rod

Product details：

Application:

Brass rods are widely used. In machinery manufacturing, its good mechanical properties can be used to make nuts, bolts and transmission gears, etc., with both strength and toughness, wear resistance and durability, to ensure the normal operation of machinery. In terms of electrical conductivity, it is acceptable and has high hardness. It is suitable for wire joints, which can be firmly connected and reduce the risk of poor contact. In the decoration industry, the golden appearance is polished, electroplated and bright and beautiful. It can be used as sculpture, home brackets and building door handles, railings, etc., to enhance the decorative texture and elegant atmosphere. In the field of musical instrument manufacturing, it is a key material for brass instruments such as trumpets and trombones. It has excellent acoustic performance, bright and round tone, and can withstand vibration and temperature changes to ensure the quality and life of musical instruments.

   Product Features:

1. Superior mechanical properties

Strength and hardness: Brass rods have good strength and hardness. Its tensile strength is usually between 300 – 600MPa, depending on the composition and manufacturing process of brass. This strength enables it to withstand certain external forces and can be used to manufacture parts that require wear resistance and pressure resistance, such as small shafts in mechanical transmissions, valve cores of valves, etc.

Toughness and ductility: It also has good toughness and ductility. Brass rods will not break easily when impacted or bent, and can be changed in shape through processing methods such as forging and rolling. For example, when making brass crafts, brass rods can be drawn into filaments or forged into complex shapes.

2. Good processing performance

Easy cutting: Brass rods have low cutting force and high processing surface quality during cutting. This allows it to obtain precise dimensions and good surface finish during machining. Whether it is turning, milling or drilling, it can be carried out smoothly, so it is often used to manufacture high-precision mechanical parts and decorative parts.

Good forgeability and castability: Its forgeability and castability are also excellent. During the forging process, brass rods can be easily forged into various shapes at high temperatures without defects such as cracks. During casting, the required parts can be accurately cast according to the shape of the mold, which is particularly useful for manufacturing products with complex shapes.

3. Good corrosion resistance

In general atmospheric environments and some chemical media, brass rods have good corrosion resistance. An oxide film will form on its surface, which can prevent further erosion by oxygen, moisture and certain chemicals. However, in environments containing specific components such as ammonia and ammonium salts, brass rods may corrode, so anti-corrosion treatment may be required under special circumstances.

4. Attractive appearance characteristics

Beautiful color: Brass rods have a unique golden appearance, which gives people a gorgeous and noble feeling. In the fields of architectural decoration, furniture accessories and artistic creation, its beautiful color can add artistic value and decorative effect to the product.

High surface quality: After proper processing, the surface of the brass rod can be very smooth, which can reflect light well and enhance the visual effect. And through surface treatments such as polishing and brushing, it can present different textures to meet various aesthetic needs.

5. Excellent electrical and thermal conductivity

Brass rods are good electrical and thermal conductive materials. Although its conductivity is not as good as pure copper, in many occasions where the conductivity requirements are not particularly high, such as some electrical terminals, small conductive structures, etc., brass rods can effectively conduct current. At the same time, in occasions where heat conduction is required, such as small parts of heat exchangers, brass rods can also play a good role in heat conduction.
