Description

Tata Steel offers a range of cold-rolled steel strip products electroplated with brass. These products have excellent performance features and provide a cost-effective alternative to solid brass.

Our brass-plated steel products are used in numerous applications from sporting ammunition to household goods. Their consistent quality enables trouble-free processing.

Our cold-rolled steel strip is manufactured to consistently tight dimensional tolerances. Stringent process control ensures excellent adhesion of the pure brass layer during electroplating. The finished product has a brass layer that is uniform, clean and free of oxides. Our products are available in a choice of surface finish to suit your applications.

Tata Steel’s brass-plated steel strip products offer significant benefits for your processing operations. They have outstanding formability. Their deep-drawing properties enable reliable production of components in demanding shapes.

For added benefits, we can tailor our products to meet your exact processing and end-product requirements.

Main benefits of our brass-plated steel include:

end-products of consistent and reliable quality

improved end-product performance

trouble-free, repeatable processing

minimised waste

extended tool life

control of substrate and base metal properties

"Typical" values were obtained via a literature search. "Predicted" values were imputed via artificial intelligence technology. While we have placed significant efforts in ensuring data accuracy, "typical" and "predicted" data should be considered indicative and verified by appropriate material testing. Please do contact us if additional information on the the predicted data method is required.
All metrics apply to room temperature unless otherwise stated. SI units used unless otherwise stated.
Equivalent standards are similar to one or more standards provided by the supplier. Some equivalent standards may be stricter whereas others may be outside the bounds of the original standard.
