Brass is a strong CNC machining choice due to its durability, low friction coefficient, good formability, and appealing finish. SHBD Metal provides comprehensive brass CNC machining services using advanced technology and equipment for unmatched precision and quality. Our skilled machinists specialize in complex parts from intricate molds to custom components.
Cartridge brass (Copper 260) is a popular CNC material valued for its strength and outstanding machinability. It offers corrosion resistance and superior electrical conductivity, suiting automotive components, electronic hardware, and more. With impressive strength, heat resistance, and machinability, Copper 260 is an excellent choice for precision parts.
Free-cutting brass (Copper 360) delivers superior machinability and excellent electrical conductivity. It is ideal for parts requiring precision forming and machining. Copper 360 offers strong tensile and yield strength for load-bearing applications. Its low coercivity suits electrical terminals and connectors for the electronics industry. Its attractive golden color works well for decorative components, and its corrosion resistance makes it popular for outdoor use.
SHBD Metal's Copper 360 is the ideal choice for customers requiring superior performance and quality in their brass components.
Beyond C260 and C360, our brass machining capabilities extend to specialized alloys engineered for specific requirements.
Leaded brass is widely specified for high-volume CNC applications because lead acts as a chip-breaking and lubricating agent during cutting, substantially improving machinability.
Naval brass, with a small tin addition, provides enhanced seawater corrosion resistance over standard grades, making it suitable for marine hardware and offshore environments.
Red brass, with elevated copper content, offers superior corrosion resistance and ductility, and is commonly used in plumbing systems and industrial valves requiring long-term durability.

Brass is naturally antimicrobial due to its copper content and is generally considered a low-sparking material under normal mechanical conditions, making it suitable for use in environments where flammable or explosive risks may be present.
Its relatively low coefficient of friction provides good wear resistance in low- to medium-load applications such as bushings, bearings, gears, and lock cylinders, contributing to stable performance and long service life.
In addition, brass offers good thermal and electrical conductivity compared to many engineering alloys. These properties, combined with excellent machinability, make it a widely used material for fluid control components such as valves, pipe fittings, and compression fittings across plumbing, marine, and industrial sectors.
Our machining capabilities enable us to work with brass to create parts for a wide range of applications, including:
