Product Introduction
Brass strip is a copper-zinc alloy material processed through rolling, heat treatment, surface cleaning and finishing. Its composition and temper affect its mechanical properties and suitability for forming and other manufacturing processes.
CIVEN Metal lists brass strip in several grades, including H96, H90, H85, H70, H68, H65, H63 and H62. The product range covers different thicknesses, widths and material conditions for electrical, automotive, communications, hardware and decorative applications.
When selecting brass strip, buyers should specify the required grade, temper, thickness, width and dimensional tolerances. These details help determine whether the material matches the intended fabrication process and finished component.
Brass Strip Grades and Alloy Designations
The current product data lists the following Chinese grades and corresponding international designations.
| China grade | ISO designation | ASTM designation | JIS designation |
|---|---|---|---|
| H96 | CuZn5 | C21000 | C2100 |
| H90 | CuZn10 | C22000 | C2200 |
| H85 | CuZn15 | C23000 | C2300 |
| H70 | CuZn30 | C26000 | C2600 |
| H68 | Not listed | Not listed | Not listed |
| H65 | CuZn35 | C27000 | C2700 |
| H63 | CuZn37 | C27200 | C2720 |
| H62 | CuZn40 | C28000 | C2800 |
The designations above follow the current page's alloy table. Confirm the required standard and material grade against the purchase specification before ordering, particularly when a project specifies an ASTM, ISO or JIS designation.
Chemical Composition
The published chemical composition table lists copper, iron, lead, nickel, zinc and impurity limits for the grades below.
| China grade | Copper (Cu, %) | Iron (Fe, max. %) | Lead (Pb, max. %) | Nickel (Ni, max. %) | Zinc (Zn) | Impurities (max. %) |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| H96 | 95.0–97.0 | 0.10 | 0.03 | 0.5 | Rem. | 0.3 |
| H90 | 88.0–91.0 | 0.10 | 0.03 | 0.5 | Rem. | 0.3 |
| H85 | 84.0–86.0 | 0.10 | 0.03 | 0.5 | Rem. | 0.3 |
| H70 | 68.5–71.5 | 0.10 | 0.03 | 0.5 | Rem. | 0.3 |
| H68 | 67.0–70.0 | 0.10 | 0.03 | 0.5 | Rem. | 0.3 |
| H65 | 63.5–68.0 | 0.10 | 0.03 | 0.5 | Rem. | 0.3 |
| H63 | 62.0–65.0 | 0.15 | 0.08 | 0.5 | Rem. | 0.5 |
| H62 | 60.5–63.5 | 0.15 | 0.08 | 0.5 | Rem. | 0.5 |
Rem. means the balance of the composition. The original table uses dashes for certain elements; confirm those entries with the technical team before treating them as formal composition limits.
Available Sizes and Tempers
The current product specification lists brass strip in several thickness, width and length ranges. Available dimensions depend on the product type and material condition.
The published temper notation includes:
M / O: Soft or annealed condition
Y4 / 1/4H: Quarter-hard
Y2 / 1/2H: Half-hard
Y / H: Hard
T / EH: Extra-hard or ultrahard, as identified in the page's notation
R: Hot-rolled condition, where specified
Please refer to the technical dimension table on this page for the listed thickness, width and length ranges. Confirm the available combination of grade, temper and dimensions when requesting a quotation.
Dimensional Tolerances
The published tolerance table provides thickness and width deviations for different thickness ranges and strip widths. Tolerance requirements are important when brass strip is used in parts that need consistent dimensions during forming, assembly or further processing.
For a quotation, specify the nominal thickness and width along with the required tolerance. If the finished component has strict dimensional requirements, confirm the applicable tolerance range before production.
Mechanical Properties
The current technical data lists tensile strength, elongation and hardness by temper.
| Temper designation | Equivalent notation shown on page | Tensile strength (N/mm²) | Elongation (minimum, %) | Hardness (HV) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| M | O | ≥290 | 35 | Not listed |
| Y4 | 1/4H | 325–410 | 30 | 75–125 |
| Y2 | 1/2H | 340–470 | 20 | 85–145 |
| Y | H | 390–630 | 10 | 105–175 |
| T | EH | ≥490 | 2.5 | ≥145 |
| R | - | Not listed | Not listed | Not listed |
These values are reproduced from the current page's mechanical-performance table. Confirm the applicable values for the selected grade and temper before using them as acceptance criteria.
Applications
Electrical Components
Brass strip is listed for electrical applications where the selected alloy and temper must meet the component's forming and performance requirements.
Automotive and Communications Equipment
The product range also covers automotive and communications applications. The appropriate grade and dimensions depend on the design of the part and the manufacturing process.
Hardware and Decorative Products
Brass strip can be considered for hardware and decorative components where the selected material condition suits the required shape and finish.
For projects requiring a flat brass material rather than strip, compare Brass Sheet.
For applications that specifically require copper strip rather than copper-zinc alloy, see Copper Strip.
Request a Brass Strip Specification
When contacting CIVEN Metal, provide the brass grade, temper, thickness, width, required length and order quantity. Include any applicable chemical composition, mechanical-property or dimensional-tolerance requirements so the material can be evaluated against your specification.
