C83600 (SAE40 CuSn5Zn5Pb5) Leaded Red Brass whichcontain 5% lead,Sn 5%,Zn 5%.it has excellent machinability, good strength andcorrosion resistance.
Lead can be added to any brass to increase machinabilityand provide pressure tightness by sealing the shrinkage pores.
These are usedfor architectural hardware, general purpose screw machine parts, screws,valves, fittings, bearings and specialty fasteners.
