Yes, lead-free brass rods can be used for electrical applications due to their excellent conductivity, corrosion resistance, and durability, making them suitable for connectors, terminals, and other electrical components.
Lead-free brass rods are manufactured by melting a blend of copper, zinc, and other metals, then extruding the mixture into rods. The process involves cooling, shaping, and precision cutting for consistency.
Store lead-free brass rods in a dry, cool environment, away from moisture and corrosive elements. Keep them on pallets or racks, ensuring proper ventilation and protection from physical damage and oxidation.
These Lead Free Brass Rods are widely utilized in industries where lead content is restricted due to health and environmental regulations. They are commonly found in plumbing and sanitary fittings, ensuring safe interaction with potable water systems. In the electrical and electronics fields, they serve as connectors, terminals, and switches thanks to their excellent conductivity. Moreover, these rods are favored in the production of decorative hardware, architectural elements, and precision instruments. Their eco-friendly characteristics and compliance with standards like RoHS and REACH make Lead Free Brass Rods a perfect choice for contemporary, sustainable engineering and consumer applications.
We provide products that come with both mill test certificates and third-party test certificates, ensuring the highest standards of quality and compliance.
