Starway as brass sheet metal fabricator has ability to fabricate different grade brass parts.
Here is a brass part applied in restroom. It is rust proof with beautiful appearance.
Brass is an alloy comprised of copper and zinc and offers a wide range of properties such as high corrosion resistance, hardness, thermal conductivity, strength, and workability. It is considered low friction and non-magnetic alloy and can range in colors from deep red to golden yellow.
Different grades of brass can be used in many industries. Common uses include nuts, bolts, threaded parts, electrical terminals, taps, and injector parts.
H62 and H59 are two types of ordinary brass, with similar characteristics, but differ in cost. The H62 is a little more expensive due to the relatively higher copper content. What are other differences between H62 and H59, and which alloy should you choose in different applications?
1. The most significant difference is their copper content and chemical composition.
Composition of H59 Brass:
Copper (Cu): 57 – 60%
Lead (Pb): ≤ 0.5%
Phosphorus (P): ≤ 0.01%
Iron (Fe): ≤ 0.3%
Stibium (Sb): ≤ 0.01%
Bismuth (Bi): ≤ 0.003%
Zinc (Zn): remainder
Impurity: ≤ 1.0%
2. Properties
H59 Properties:
Tensile strength σb (MPa): ≥ 294
Elongation δ10 (%): ≥ 25
Hot working temperature: 730 – 820 ℃
Annealing temperature: 600 – 670 ℃
3.Performance and applications.
H59 brass has cheap price and ordinary corrosion resistance, so it is generally used for machine parts, welding parts, hot stamping and hot rolling parts, suitable for electrical appliances, electronics, lighting, hardware, mounting horizontal, switch, gasket, battery contact piece, copper button, watch strap, decorative necklace, bracelet, ring and other brass products. H62 brass has good mechanical properties, good corrosion resistance and better plasticity in hot or cold condition, it is easy to machine, braze and weld, but also easy to produce corrosion cracking, it can be used for parts need to withstand large load and the is a good material for making faucets. Common uses of H62 brass including pin, nut, washer, radiator, sugar industry, shipbuilding industry, paper industry, and other parts.
