Why Material Grade and Condition Matter
C36000 free-cutting leaded brass differs from C69300 silicon-bearing lead-restricted brass. Representative components include turned fittings, connectors, valve parts, decorative hardware and fasteners. Different grades can share a broad alloy family while requiring distinct finishing, inspection or material qualification. Procurement and engineering should agree on the supplied condition and part performance before accepting substitutions.
Precision Bar Supply and Processing
Mozaic Precision Metals offers project-specific centerless grinding, bar straightening, polishing, saw cutting, chamfering and packaging. Our quoting process considers material condition, diameter, length and the required final surface. Diameter tolerance, straightness and roughness should be specified and inspected separately.
