Our brass hexagon rod (material number 2.0401, also known as CuZn39Pb3 or Ms58) is manufactured from a copper-zinc-lead alloy, containing approximately 57-59% copper, 36-40% zinc, and 2.5-3.5% lead. This alloy is the top choice for machining operations in Germany and is especially suitable for use on automatic lathes. Brass hexagon is easily punched and offers excellent machinability, though it has lower corrosion resistance. The material is well-suited for hot forming but can only be cold-formed to a limited degree due to stress corrosion cracking risks. Cold working imparts high hardness and strength to the material.
