Product Description

The 260 brass sheet with H02 temper is unpolished, meets American Society for Testing and Materials International ASTM B36 specifications, and has a standard tolerance. The 260 brass alloy, also known as yellow brass and cartridge brass, is corrosion resistant and has high formability due to its zinc content. The material has an H02 temper, meaning it has been cold worked to a 1/2 hard temper.

Copper, brass, and bronze are known as red metals because they contain copper, which has a reddish color. Copper, a term that applies to alloys containing at least 99.3% copper, offers very high thermal and electrical conductivity and provides corrosion resistance, formability, and machinability. Brass is an alloy of copper and varying levels of zinc, sometimes with additional elements. It provides greater strength and better machinability than copper or bronze. Bronze is commonly an alloy of copper and tin, but sometimes it is copper alloyed with other elements such as aluminum, phosphorus, manganese, or silicon. Tin gives bronze more corrosion resistance than brass and greater strength than copper. Copper and its alloys have temper designations, meaning the material has undergone a process to achieve certain properties of strength and hardness.

Tensile strength, used to indicate the material's overall strength, is the peak stress it can withstand before it breaks. Corrosion resistance describes the material's ability to prevent deterioration caused by atmosphere, moisture, or other medium. Wear resistance indicates the ability to prevent surface damage caused by contact with other surfaces. Hardness (commonly measured as indentation hardness) describes its resistance to permanent surface deformation. Formability indicates how easily the material can be permanently shaped. Machinability describes how easily it can be cut, shaped, finished, or otherwise machined, while weldability characterizes the ability to be welded.

260 Brass Sheet, Unpolished (Mill) Finish, H02 Temper, ASTM B36, 0.5" Thickness, 12" Width, 12" Length Review

My kids were asking why our apartment doesn't have its own brass sign outside unlike all the other apartments. We live in San Francisco's trendy South of Market district, where brass signs have become de rigueur in recent years. Signs with butterflies embossed on them that say "The Nabokovs." Signs with monocles engraved that read "Peter and Harriet." The lot. Yes, I know what it's like to be a kid and to be ashamed of one's parents for not providing one's family with something it seems all the other kids have. And so, when I noticed that they were crying themselves to sleep over this issue, and that in the morning their pillowcases were wet with tears, I resolved to do something about it, so I ordered a few ultra slim 260 H02 sheets of brass from Amazon and decided to make myself a sign for "The Killians."

These brass sheets, less than .02 inches thick, are flexible enough for you, or your child, to wrap around a pole, massage into desired thickness, test for bugs, in any dimension you like. My kids wanted to paper the lintel with brass, and I let 'em. Might be hot on summer afternoons, but they'll learn. In the meantime you can hammer out the font characters you want, plus some amusing design (we had tulips) cut to 36" x 12" so you will have a nice plaque right next to your doorbell. Or should you discover someone famous once lived in your building, and your HOA approves, you could whip up a sign to commemorate the achievement right away. Like we discovered that Samuel Delany and Marilyn Hacker once lived in our building and staged a production of Genet's THE MAIDS on the three-flight stairwell, so that spectators stood on the street and craned their necks up to see the fun. Blam! Another brass sign. At this price you'll be buying brass like there's no tomorrow.
