CF BRASS 360
CF BRASS 360
(OP)
I designed some parts to be made out of C360. Called a metal distributor (one of the county's largest) and they had C360 with Heat numbers. I forgot to ask to see the MTR before ordering. When I got the papers all the supplier gave me was a Certificate of Conformance saying they would only guarantee the chemical composition not the physical. Since the parts were made I sent out a piece to get tested and it failed.
Selling something with a heat number and no test papers is that common?
If the metal failed how can you call it C360?

Most Codes and Standards and recognized international material specifications require material test reports to be supplied with product forms or at least require mechnical properties to be met by reference to the material specification.
Once again buyer beware.
