DESCRIPTION

5/8″ Brass Hexagon Bar (A360 – Free Cutting Yellow Brass)

5/8″ (.625″) Brass Hexagon Bar C360 (C36000 FCB Free Cutting) is a solid hex bar produced from free-cutting brass alloy C36000, engineered for superior machinability and consistent performance. The hexagonal shape allows for efficient machining and secure wrenching in finished components. This alloy contains lead to enhance chip breaking, reduce tool wear, and support high-speed machining operations. C360 brass also provides good corrosion resistance, moderate strength, and a smooth surface finish, making it ideal for both production and custom fabrication.

Applications:
5/8″ Brass Hex Bar C360 is widely used in machining and industrial applications, including:
• Manufacturing bolts, nuts, and heavy-duty fasteners
• CNC machining of fittings, valves, and couplings
• Electrical connectors, terminals, and conductive components
• Plumbing and fluid handling hardware
• Decorative and architectural applications
• High-volume production parts requiring tight tolerances

Advantages:
• Excellent machinability: One of the highest machinability ratings among copper alloys
• Free cutting properties: Promotes clean chip formation and longer tool life
• Hex shape: Ideal for wrenching applications and efficient material usage
• Corrosion resistant: Suitable for many indoor and non-marine environments
• Smooth finish: Produces clean, precise surfaces with minimal finishing
• Cost-effective: Reduces machining time and overall production costs

Summary:
The 5/8″ C360 (C36000) Free Cutting Brass Hexagon Bar is a high-quality material designed for precision machining and industrial use. Its superior machinability, corrosion resistance, and hexagonal profile make it an excellent choice for producing fasteners, fittings, and components requiring accuracy, efficiency, and reliable performance.

* Prices subject to change without notice due to the Metals Market fluctuations. | All ‘value length’ and ‘value pack’ item measurements are subject to a “mill tolerance”. | A product may be produced several thousandths of an inch, either over or under the stated thickness, and still be within “mill tolerance”. Since we cut the material specifically for your order, they follow these tolerances: Length: +0.125″ / -0.062” – Please note that during cutting, the blade removes about 1/16″ of material (kerf). This is a normal part of the process and is already considered within the stated tolerances.
