BRASS
Welcome to Bhavik Steel & Alloys, a leading name in the manufacturing, supplying, and exporting of top-quality brass products. With a commitment to excellence, we offer a diverse range of brass solutions crafted to meet the varying needs of industries globally.
Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, in proportions which can be varied to achieve varying mechanical and electrical properties. It is a substitutional alloy: atoms of the two constituents may replace each other within the same crystal structure.
Brass is similar to bronze, another alloy containing copper that uses tin in place of zinc;both bronze and brass may include small proportions of a range of other elements including arsenic, lead, phosphorus, aluminum, manganese, and silicon. The distinction between the two alloys is largely historical, and modern practice in museums and archaeology increasingly avoids both terms for historical objects in favor of the more general “copper alloy”.

Popular Grades in the 400 Series:
Alloy 260 (Cartridge Brass)
Alloy 260 is also referred to as cartridge brass. This brass alloy comprises around 70% copper and 30% zinc, with impurities. Alloy 260 has good hot formability and can be cold-worked easily. It is used in autos, ammunition, hardware, and fasteners, among other things.
Alloy 280 (Muntz Metal)
Alloy 280 contains around 60% copper, 40% zinc, and a trace amount of iron. Muntz metal was commonly used as an affordable alternative for the copper sheeting formerly placed on boat hulls to avoid the formation of marine organisms like barnacles on the hulls.
Alloy 360 (Free Machining Brass)
Alloy 360 comprises around 60% copper, 35.5% zinc, up to 3.7% lead, and trace amounts of iron. This type of alloy is one of the easiest materials to process out of all the brasses, with a 100% machinability grade. Alloy 360 is also an excellent choice for brazing and soldering applications. Designers and machinists use this alloy to create fittings, fasteners, valves, and hardware components.
Alloy 385 (Architectural Bronze)
Alloy 385 is an alloy of around 59% copper, 42% zinc, and up to 3.5% lead. This enhances its machinability and formability significantly. Because this alloy is easy to form, it is a good architectural material for aluminum extrusions.
Alloy 464 (Naval Brass)
Alloy 464 is also known as naval brass. This brass alloy comprises roughly 59% copper, 40% zinc, and 1% tin, with a trace of lead. The result is a metal with high corrosion resistance. It can also endure a broad range of temperature changes. Its adaptability for cold and hot forming operations, bending, soldering, and welding, among other things, makes it ideal for various applications. Applications include the different fittings used on a deck of a boat.
