CNC Machining in Brass
Known for its warm, inviting gold-toned appearance, brass is a remarkably versatile copper-zinc alloy. Prized for being easy to machine, cast, and form, it also boasts good strength, acoustic qualities, and natural corrosion resistance, developing a desirable patina as it ages.

Brass for Machining Parts
LML provides a range of brass alloys within its extensive material selection. Among these, two specific alloys are particularly well-regarded and widely chosen for CNC machining operations, such as milling and turning: Free-Cutting Brass (C36000) and Cartridge Brass (C26000).Brass C36000 (Free-Cutting Brass): This highly machinable alloy offers excellent chip formation, superior surface finishes, good strength, and decent corrosion resistance. Its inherent lubricity (often from lead content) makes it ideal for high-speed automated machining.Brass C26000 (Cartridge Brass): A versatile alloy known for its excellent combination of good formability, high strength, attractive gold-like appearance, good corrosion resistance, and superb acoustic properties. It provides a strong balance for various machined parts.GET INSTANT QUOTE
