RE: Hard Brass
I think the Hard Brass is about 90% Cu. It has some lead in it so that it can be machined. I just want to know the exact composition and common US alloy numbers of hard brass. Also, what are the uses of Hard Brass (what machine parts are made from it).
Arun, it will be nice to know what Hard Brass is commonly called in India.
Thanks.
