Copper and brass guide for conductive machined parts

Material role

Copper and brass are often selected for conductivity, thermal transfer, corrosion behavior or visual appearance.

What to define

  • Conductivity or thermal requirement if relevant.
  • Plating, anti-oxidation or cosmetic surface expectation.
  • Thread and burr control on small fittings.

Typical uses

Examples include electrical contacts, busbar-related supports, thermal blocks, inserts, nozzles and precision fittings.
