Description

2.0380 (CuZn38Pb2) also known as engraving brass, is a classic leaded machining alloy primarily available in sheet form. It is an alpha beta brass with a 2% lead addition that gives the alloy its free-cutting properties. Traditionally used for machine-engraved nameplates and signs. It also offers a good combination of strength, corrosion resistance and hot formability. The duplex phase structure, however, means this alloy is not suitable for acid-etched work. It shows the following features and properties:

Free-cutting characteristics

Good corrosion resistance

Excellent hot formability
