Machined brass: precision, contact and machinability

Machined brass is preferred for technical components with fine dimensions, fittings, bushes and connectors where machinability shortens cycle times.

In CNC turning, brass allows clean threads, precise bores and careful finishes for small to medium runs.

Lusinage manufactures your brass parts from drawing or STEP file, with advice on alloy (CuZn39Pb3 and equivalents) and compatibility with fluids or electrical contact.

Material strengths

Advantages of brass in machining

Exceptional machinability

Short cycles, excellent for precision parts and repetitive runs.

Moderate wear resistance

Suited to bushes, slides and light-friction parts.

Appearance and contact

Careful finish for connectors, technical fasteners and visible parts.

Machining of fine details

Drilling, tapping and micro-geometries are well suited to turning-milling.

Examples

Typical machined brass parts

Brass bush, bearing and friction part

Fitting, nipple and fluid connector

Connector and contact part

Brass screw, nut and insert to drawing

Miniature valve body or manifold

Spacer and turned precision part

Watchmaking or instrumentation component

Connector prototype before production

Obsolete brass spare part

Brass machining: FAQ

Which types of brass do you machine?

Common free-cutting and binary brasses (CuZn39Pb3 type) per drawing; state any lead restriction and standard.

Brass for food contact?

Often reserved for stainless steel for direct contact; brass for technical fittings depending on regulations, to be validated case by case.

Turning or milling for my brass part?

Turning for round parts; milling for faces and multi-axis drilling.

Brass machining vs bronze?

Brass is more machinable; bronze is better for certain bearings; we guide you according to friction and load.

Polished finish possible?

Careful surface finishes in machining; specific polishing to be stated on the quote.

Repetitive small brass runs?

Yes. Brass is cost-effective on medium volumes thanks to cycle time.

Brass part with a fine thread?

Metric or special taps and threads per drawing.

Quote without a final quantity?

State a range or prototype; the quote can be adapted for a run.

Brass and corrosion?

Fine indoors; stainless steel recommended in marine or chlorinated environments.

Standard lead time for a brass part?

Often short for simple turned parts; confirmed on the quote.
