Frequently Asked Questions
Which is Better for CNC Machining: Brass or Copper?
Brass is generally better suited for CNC machining than pure copper. It has lower ductility and better chip formation, resulting in smoother cuts, less tool wear, and faster machining speeds.
Is Brass Easier to Machine Than Aluminum?
Yes, brass is easier to machine than aluminum due to its excellent chip control and lower friction during cutting. It provides better surface finishes and longer tool life in CNC machining.
Which Type of Brass Is Best for Machining?
C36000 (Free-Cutting Brass) is the best brass alloy for machining. It contains a small amount of lead, which improves lubricity and chip breaking, allowing high-speed, precise CNC operations.
What Is the Cutting Speed for Machining Brass?
Typical cutting speeds for brass range from 100–300 m/min (≈ 330–980 ft/min), depending on the alloy, tooling material, and machining conditions.
What Is the Standard Brass Used for Machining?
The standard brass used for machining is C36000 Free-Cutting Brass, widely recognized for its excellent machinability and dimensional accuracy in CNC turning and milling.
Is Brass Easier to Cut Than Steel?
Yes, brass is much easier to cut than steel. It requires less cutting force, generates less heat, and produces consistent chips, which makes it ideal for high-precision CNC machining.
What Is the Difference Between C260 and C360 Brass?
In summary, C260 is for forming, while C360 is for machining.
What Is the Price of 1 kg of Brass?
The price of brass typically ranges from $4 to $6 per kilogram, depending on market conditions, alloy type, and purity.
Why Is Brass Easy to Machine?
