Brass Alloy Casting Process
As a brass casting company, JRF delivers brass casting services using Hunter matchplate molding, roto lift, and jolt squeeze methods in our sand cast foundry.
Brass Advantages
Brass has a high malleability and a low melting point at 900 degrees centigrade. It flows when melted. In some cases, iron, aluminum, silicon and manganese may be added for corrosion-resistant brass alloys. Brass is susceptible to stress cracking when exposed to ammonia and is not as hard as steel.
When to Specify Brass
We recommend brass casting alloy for decorative and low-friction applications like locks, gears, doorknobs, ammunition, and valves. Our brass casting service is an excellent choice for plumbing fixtures and electronic components. Brass possesses excellent acoustic properties making it highly desirable for musical instruments. Brass can be found in zippers and anywhere you want to avoid sparks such as tools and fittings used around explosive gas.
