About this Brass stock
Product Overview
Our Premium Brass Round Bar is available in a grade CZ121, which is an alpha/beta alloy. This material is renowned for its hardness and tensile strength, ensuring durability and reliability in various applications.
The addition of lead in the composition significantly improves machinability. The lead remains insoluble in the microstructure of the brass, with soft particles acting as chip breakers during machining processes. This feature makes our brass round bar an excellent choice for precision fabrication.

- Furniture manufacturing
- Architectural extrusions
- Electrical components
- Locks and hinges
Technical Specifications
