C2801P-1/2H
C2801P is a brass alloy with around 60% copper and 40% zinc, known as "Muntz metal" or alpha-beta brass. The “1/2H” indicates half-hard temper, giving it moderate strength with better formability compared to full hard. It offers good corrosion resistance, good cold workability, and is commonly used for architectural trim, hardware, and decorative parts.
C2801P Brass is a high-quality copper-zinc alloy recognized for its excellent balance of strength, machinability, and corrosion resistance. With a golden appearance, this alloy is not only valued for its mechanical properties but also for its aesthetic appeal, making it versatile for both engineering and decorative applications.
C2801P is widely used in plumbing fittings, fasteners, valves, and electrical components due to its ability to resist wear and environmental damage. It also offers good ductility, allowing for forming, bending, and machining without losing performance integrity.
At GD Prototyping, we supply C2801P brass in precision-machined forms, tailored for industries like automotive, electronics, decorative hardware, and mechanical systems. Whether for prototyping or large-scale production, this material ensures durability, reliability, and consistent quality in demanding applications.
