Is Brass 260 corrosion resistant?

Yes, it resists atmospheric and mild chemical corrosion, but less than tin bronzes.

How does Brass 260 compare to Brass 360?

Brass 260 has better formability but lower machinability than Brass 360.

Because it is widely used in ammunition c artridge cases due to its ductility.

In high-volume machined parts such as fittings, valves, and connectors.

Welding is difficult due to lead content; brazing and soldering are preferred.

Because its lead content improves m achinability, making it easy to cut on CNC m achines.

Not recommended, as dezincification can occur; naval brass is better.

For precision machined parts, especially in plumbing and electrical industries.

Yes, they are equivalent grades under different standards (EN vs ASTM).

In plumbing, drinking water systems, and eco sensitive applications.

It has lower machinability than C360 but offers environmental compliance and superior dezincification resistance.

Because it is a lead-free brass designed to m eet environmental regulations.
