CNC Brass Turned Parts CNC Lathe Turning Services Precision Machining
For Aerospace Parts
At its core, CNC machining is a subtractive manufacturing technique utilized to fashion parts
through the controlled removal of material from a workpiece or its stock.
The machinery's actions are orchestrated by preprogrammed software and codes, directing
the intricate movement of its components. The array of CNC machining equipment spans turning
mills, lathes, grinders, and plasma-cutting machines.
Product Details
360 Brass, often referred to as free-machining brass, stands out as the brass alloy with the
highest lead content.
This abundance of lead contributes to its exceptional machinability, resulting in minimal tool
wear.
360 Brass finds widespread use in crafting various components, including gears, lock parts,
pipe fittings, and ornamental applications.
260 Brass, alternatively known as cartridge brass, though not as machinable as 360 brass,
boasts excellent weldability and ease of forming.
It is most frequently applied in the manufacturing of appliance components and fasteners.
Common Brass Materials | |
No. | Properties |
Brass Cz121 | Brass Cz121/C360 (CNC) is a highly machinable alloy with good tensile strength and natural corrosion resistance. Ideal for parts that require low friction. |
Brass C360 | Brass C360 (CNC) is highly machinable alloy with good tensile strength and natural corrosion resistance. Ideal for parts that require low friction. |
Brass Finishing and Post-Processing
360 Brass has a shiny yellow finish that varies depending on surface roughness.
It can be hand-polished to increase its sheen, or media blasted for more of a matte texture.

Applications of CNC Brass Parts
The turning process is employed to manufacture rotational components, typically axi-symmetric,
featuring a range of characteristics such as holes, grooves, threads, tapers, various diameter
steps, and contoured surfaces.
Products crafted exclusively through turning often encompass items produced in small quantities,
particularly for prototypes, like custom-designed shafts and fasteners.
Turning is frequently utilized as a secondary procedure to incorporate or enhance features on
components initially manufactured using a different technique.
Examples of items manufactured through turning encompass camshafts, crankshafts, baseball
bats, bowls, cue sticks, signboards, musical instruments, and legs for tables and chairs.
Company Profile
FAQ's
1. Would you be able to create design drawings for me?
While we don't offer a standalone product design service, we do provide Design for Manufacturing
reviews for all approved orders. This entails collaborating with our clients to enhance the
manufacturability of their 2D and 3D drawings, address design conflicts, and reduce production
costs. Learn more about preparing your CAD drawings for manufacturing.
2. What kinds of design files does We accept for quoting?
To ensure precision and promptness in our quoting process, we exclusively accept 3D CAD files in
STL, STEP, or IGES formats. For 2D drawings with reference dimensions, please provide them in PDF
format.
Complete manufacturing information is crucial and should be included as part of the technical
documentation. Informal communication through SMS, Skype, email, etc., will not be deemed
acceptable for manufacturing purposes.
3. What is the typical turnaround time for a quotation?
In the majority of instances, we aim to provide a response within a few days of receiving a Request
for Quotation (RFQ). Should there be any delay in the quoting process, we commit to notifying you
at the earliest convenience.
4. Do you offer other services, like finishing, assembly, packaging, and logistical support?
Certainly! We offer a comprehensive range of services, ensuring a seamless production process from
start to finish.
Our capabilities include anodizing, plating, grinding, finishing, assembly, warehousing, packaging,
and just-in-time delivery. Whether you need finishing touches, assembly services, or logistical
support, we aim to provide a one-stop solution that not only saves you time and money but also
allows you to concentrate on your core business activities.
