CuZn40Pb2 (CW617N) is the industry-standard alloy for hot forging and complex pressing. Specifically engineered with a high zinc content to provide exceptional ductility at high temperatures, it allows for the production of intricate shapes with high structural integrity. It combines superior hot-forming properties with good machinability, making it the primary choice for valves, fittings, and complex hardware.

CuZn39Pb3 (CW614N) is the global benchmark for high-speed machining and automatic lathe work. Known as "Free Machining Brass," this alloy contains a specific lead content that ensures excellent chip breaking and minimal tool wear. It is the most cost-effective and efficient material for high-volume production of intricate parts requiring a superior surface finish.
