Unleash Precision & Durability: Premium Brass Turned Components

Discover the Excellence of Custom Brass Machining

Elevate your designs and projects with our meticulously crafted brass turned components. Utilizing state-of-the-art CNC turning technology, we transform high-grade brass bar stock into precision parts, fittings, and assemblies that meet the most demanding specifications. From intricate connectors to robust mechanical parts, our brass turned products embody the perfect synergy of material integrity and manufacturing precision.

Key Features & Benefits:

• Unrivaled Precision & Accuracy: Manufactured using advanced CNC lathes, ensuring exceptional dimensional accuracy, tight tolerances (as fine as ±0.0005 inches / 0.0127 mm), and superior repeatability for every component.
• Premium Brass Alloys: We work with a wide range of high-quality brass alloys, including C360 (Free Machining Brass), C260 (Cartridge Brass), C464 (Naval Brass), and more, chosen for optimal machinability, strength, and corrosion resistance for your specific application.
• Exceptional Durability & Longevity: Brass offers inherent strength and resistance to wear and tear, ensuring that your components maintain their performance and structural integrity over time, even in demanding environments.
• Superior Corrosion Resistance: Naturally resistant to rust and various corrosive agents, brass is an ideal material for marine, plumbing, outdoor, and challenging industrial applications.
• High Electrical & Thermal Conductivity: Excellent properties for applications requiring efficient electrical transmission or thermal management, such as electrical connectors, heat sinks, and sensor bodies.
• Beautiful Aesthetics & Patina Potential: Brass components boast an attractive golden luster that can be polished to a high shine or allowed to develop a distinctive, protective patina over time, adding a classic and sophisticated touch to decorative or exposed parts.
• Versatile Applications: Ideal for a vast array of industries including plumbing, electrical, automotive, aerospace, medical devices, instrumentation, decorative hardware, marine, and general manufacturing.
• Diverse Finish Options: Components can be delivered with various finishes including natural machined, polished, brushed, passivated, or plated (e.g., nickel, chrome, gold) to meet aesthetic and functional requirements.

Material Spotlight: Why Choose Brass for Turned Parts?

Brass is an alloy primarily composed of copper and zinc, renowned for its exceptional properties that make it a preferred material for precision turning:

• Outstanding Machinability: Known as one of the easiest metals to machine, brass allows for faster production times, intricate geometries, and cleaner cuts, reducing manufacturing costs and enhancing part quality.
• Excellent Strength-to-Weight Ratio: Offers a robust solution without excessive weight, suitable for a variety of structural and functional components.
• Spark Resistance: Non-sparking properties make it safe for use in environments where flammable gases or dust are present.
• Recyclability: Brass is highly recyclable, contributing to sustainable manufacturing practices.

The Turning Process: Precision in Motion

Our brass turned components are produced using the latest CNC (Computer Numerical Control) turning centers. This process involves:

1. Material Loading: High-grade brass bar stock is securely loaded into the CNC lathe.
2. Automated Machining: Computer-programmed instructions guide the cutting tools to precisely remove material, forming the desired shape. This allows for complex geometries, external and internal threading, knurling, drilling, and boring in a single setup.
3. Real-Time Monitoring: Advanced sensors and quality checks ensure that each part consistently meets design specifications.
4. Finishing: Components are deburred, cleaned, and can undergo additional finishing processes as per customer requirements.

This advanced manufacturing approach guarantees consistent quality, reduced lead times, and competitive pricing for both small batches and high-volume production runs.

Applications Across Industries:

• Plumbing & HVAC: Connectors, fittings, valves, nozzles, bushings.
• Electrical & Electronics: Terminals, connectors, pins, standoffs, sensor bodies, housings.
• Automotive & Aerospace: Bushings, fasteners, specialized fittings, fluid connectors.
