Home Brass Sheet Datasheet
Brass sheets are an alloy of Copper (Cu) and Zinc (Zn), offering a combination of durability, corrosion resistance, and aesthetic appeal. They are widely used in decorative, architectural, electrical, and industrial applications.
Exact composition varies depending on grade – CZ108, C260, C280, etc.
