With the highest lead content of all the brass alloys, 360 offers the best machinability. Often called free-machining and free-cutting brass, it stands up to high-speed drilling, milling, and tapping operations with minimal wear on your tools. It’s commonly used for gears, pinions, and lock components.

Often called architectural bronze, 385 brass is easy to machine and has excellent formability when heated. It is typically used for handrails, ornamental trim, and hardware, such as hinges and lock bodies.

The most formable brass we offer, 260 offers better weldability than 300 series brass but it’s not as machinable. Sometimes called cartridge brass, it's commonly used for ammunition casings, radiator components, and decorative door hardware.

One side of these sheets has a brushed finish with grain lines running in one direction to mask fingerprints.

353 brass is more formable than 385 brass while maintaining good machinability. Commonly called engraver’s brass, it’s well suited for fabrication processes such as knurling and threading. Use it to make nuts, gears, drawer pulls, and hinges.

Offering excellent formability, 220 bronze is known for its ability to withstand outdoor exposure. It's commonly called commercial bronze.
