Brass balls are widely used in valve, hardware, decorative and general industrial ball applications requiring corrosion resistance, machinability and stable metallic appearance.
Common brass ball materials include H62 (CuZn38 / C27200) and H65 (CuZn35 / C26800) brass alloys.
Brass balls are commonly used in valve balls, hardware balls, decorative balls and low-load industrial ball applications.
Brass balls are manufactured from copper-zinc alloy materials such as H62 (CuZn38 / C27200) and H65 (CuZn35 / C26800) brass.
Compared with standard carbon steel balls, brass balls provide better corrosion resistance, non-magnetic performance and stable metallic appearance, making them suitable for valve balls, hardware balls and decorative applications.
Brass balls also provide good machinability and moderate mechanical strength for general industrial applications.
Due to their relatively lower hardness compared with bearing steel balls, brass balls are generally not recommended for high-load rolling element bearing applications.
Brass balls are commonly selected where corrosion resistance, appearance and non-magnetic properties are more important than high load capacity.
