Brass
Brass - Covering numerous chemical and mechanical compositions, Brass offers
an ideal choice of alloy owing to its general versatility within a wide range of industries.
Fabricast stocks and maintains a large selection of Brass alloys with materials readily
available in many forms including:- |

| |
Common Brass
Additional tin content improves corrosion resistance, especially in seawater and similar
Frequently termed “Common Brasses” this material provides excellent machining and
wearing properties, and affords good corrosion resistance and conductivity.
Fabricast stocks several sections, readily available in:-
Brass (BS2874 CZ121) BSEN12163 CW614N
Extruded solid bar, Hollow Bar, Angle, Flats, Hexagons, Squares, Channel and “T” section.
Brass (BS2870 CZ108) BSEN1652/3/4 CW508L Sheet and Shim
Brass (BS2875 CZ108, Naval CZ112) BSEN1652/3 CW508L, Naval CW712R Plate
Brass (BS2873 CZ108) BSEN12166 CW508L Wire
Brass (BS2871 CZ126) BSEN12449 CW707R Tube - drawn thin wall, coil and straight
lengths |

Naval Brass
Additional tin content improves corrosion resistance, especially in seawater and similar
marine conditions. Offering less machinability than the common brasses, this material
is ideally suited to marine and heavy duty based applications. Fabricast stocks several
sections, readily available in:-
Naval Plates (BS2875 CZ112) BSEN1652/3 CW712R
Naval Round Bar (BS2874 CZ112) BSEN12163, CW712R Sheet and Shim
Other sections are also available on request.

High Tensile Brass (Manganese Brass/Bronze)
Also known as “Manganese Brass or Bronze” this provides significantly higher strength
than the standard family of brasses. Resistance to corrosion is further increased owing
to the addition of aluminium. These properties provide ideal solutions to heavy-duty
applications.
High Tensile Brass is available in the following sections:-
HTB (BS2874 CZ114) BSEN12163/4/7 CW721R Extruded Round Bar
Other sections are available on request.
