Characteristics
C26000 Brass Sheet and Plate, produced as a combination of copper and zinc, has the highest ductility in the yellow brass series. It is an attractive material with a smooth, yellow brass finish. It may be polished to a gold like appearance or given a brushed (satin) finish. 260 Brass can be used in corrosive enviroments. 260 Brass unlike steel and iron, will not rust when exposed to the atmosphere.
260 Brass Sheet & Plate, aka cartridge brass or yellow brass is the most popular and economical of the brass alloys. Brass Sheet & Plate offers good corrosion resistance to many chemical corrodents as well as industrial atmospheres and marine environments. The 260 brass sheet with H02 temper is unpolished, and has a standard tolerance. The 260 brass alloy, also known as yellow brass and cartridge brass, is corrosion resistant and has high formability due to its zinc content. The material has an H02 temper, meaning it has been cold worked to a 1/2 hard temper.
C260 brass is the most ductile of the brasses and is used in greater quantity than any other copper-zinc alloy. Copper alloy 260 has excellent to good corrosion resistance in most environments, but is not suitable for use with certain materials, such as acetic acid, moist ammonia or ammonia compounds, hydrochloric acid and nitric acid.
Applications
260 Brass has a wide range of applications, such as appliance parts, highly formable parts, ammunition components, decorative parts of furniture and cabinets, name plates, engraving plates, overlays, legend plates, lamp fixtures, fasteners, locks, hinges, flashlight shells, connectors, fittings, circuit board relays, electronic components, switches, nuts, bolts, valve stems and valve components, radiator cores and tanks, brackets, frames, fixtures, ornamental works, and used extensively in the musical instrument, electrical equipment, plumbing, central heating, seawater lines and desalination fields.
