Brass Bars
Brass bars are solid metal bars made from a copper and zinc alloy, renowned for their excellent durability and resistance to corrosion. Due to their attractive golden appearance and versatile properties, brass bars are used across a wide range of industries, including manufacturing, engineering, and even in decorative applications. Whether it’s for architectural fittings, machining components, or musical instruments, brass is a preferred choice because it combines strength with machinability.
At 1st Choice Metals, we stock a variety of brass bars to meet the needs of trade professionals, industrial businesses, and the general public. Our brass bars are suitable for use in the production of valves, locks, gears, and bearings, among many other applications.
Brass Bar Sizes and Grades at 1st Choice Metals
1st Choice Metals offers brass bars in a range of shapes and sizes to suit your project requirements. We stock brass round bars, brass flat bars, polished brass flat bars, and brass square bars. Each bar type is available in multiple dimensions, ensuring you’ll find the right material for your task.
Our brass bars are supplied in CW614N (CZ121) grade, a free-machining brass known for its excellent machinability and mechanical properties. This grade is especially favoured for high-precision work where fine detail is essential, such as in the production of fittings and fasteners.
Why Choose Brass Over Other Metals?
Brass offers several advantages over other metals like steel and aluminium. For one, brass is highly resistant to corrosion, particularly from saltwater and other corrosive environments. This makes it an ideal choice for maritime and outdoor applications. Its superior malleability means that it can be easily shaped, bent, or cut to size without compromising its structural integrity.
Brass is also a highly aesthetic metal, with its gold-like appearance making it suitable for decorative and architectural purposes. When compared to other metals, it is more resistant to wear and requires less maintenance, making it a cost-effective solution over time.
Types and Finishes of Brass Bars Available
At 1st Choice Metals, we provide an extensive range of brass bars with various finishes. Our selection includes standard brass round bars, flat bars, and square bars, as well as polished brass flat bars for projects requiring a high-quality finish. Each product is available in different lengths and widths to meet the specific needs of your project.
In addition, all our brass bars can be cut to size. Our free cutting service ensures you receive exactly what you need, reducing waste and saving you time on the job. Simply let us know your required dimensions, and we’ll handle the rest.
Can Brass Bars Be Welded or Shaped?
Yes, brass bars can be easily welded and shaped, making them highly versatile for a wide range of applications. Brass can be bent, drilled, or threaded, allowing for precise customisation in manufacturing or DIY projects. However, it’s important to ensure the right welding techniques are used to maintain the structural integrity of the metal.
