Technical
Brasses are primarily alloys of copper and zinc, the percentage of zinc in the alloy is what produces the different grades and appearances. Each grade of brass sheet has unique properties.
Yellow Brass is a high purity cold forming brass, its composition is 63% copper and 37% zinc.
Information for selecting brass sheet metal based on copper to zinc ratio:
- Gilding Metal – (90% Cu + 10% Zn), CZ101, Bronze Gold colour, typically used for Architectural Features, Ornamental Trim, Jewellery, Vitreous Enamel Base, Badges.
- Gilding Metal – (85% Cu + 15% Zn), CZ102, Tan Gold colour, Red Brass, typically used for Architectural Applications.
- Brass – (80% Cu + 20% Zn), CZ103, Golden Colour, typically used for Decorative Trim.
- Cartridge Brass or Spinning Brass – (70% Cu + 30% Zn), CZ106, Green Gold colour, Highly ductile, good cold forming properties.
- Common Brass or Yellow Brass – (63% Cu + 37% Zn), CZ 108, Yellow colour, General Purpose Brass
- Engraving Brass – (59% Cu + 39% Zn + 2% PB), CZ120, Brass Plaque colour, Contains a little lead for easy machining.
Brass sheet metal is characterised by its versatile properties which are modified by changing the ratios of copper and zinc and by adding other elements such as tin and aluminum.
Changing the alloy compositions affects: machinability, cold working properties, brazing properties, ductility, plate-ability, corrosion resistance, mechanical properties, impact resistance and colour.
CZ108 cross references are: UNS – C27200, ISO – CuZn37, EN – CW508L
