Brass Coil

CW508L (Ms63) and CW505L (Ms70) brass coil, 0.10–1.00 mm thick and up to 660 mm wide; narrower widths for press tooling are supplied as Slit Brass Strip.

Grades and sizes

CuZn37 · CW508L

MS63

An unleaded brass containing about 63 % copper and 37 % zinc. It has good cold formability and is suitable for bending, blanking, deep drawing and spinning. It is easily soldered and brazed, and can be polished and plated. It is one of the most widely used brasses for pressed and deep-drawn parts, electrical connection components, radiators and decorative parts.

Strip standard: EN 1652

CuZn30 · CW505L

MS70

An unleaded brass containing about 70 % copper and 30 % zinc. Its ductility and cold formability are among the highest of all brasses, making it suitable for more demanding deep drawing and tight-radius bending than MS63. It can be soldered, brazed and polished. Used for ammunition cases, deep-drawn cups and shells, radiator parts and precision pressings.

Frequently asked questions

How should I specify the size when ordering strip?

Sizes are stated as thickness × width plus the total weight in kg, for example 0.50 × 100 mm, 60 kg. The calculator gives the length corresponding to that weight.

What are the designations for MS63 and MS70?

MS63: CuZn37, EN CW508L, DIN 2.0321, UNS C27200, BS CZ108. MS70: CuZn30, EN CW505L, DIN 2.0265, UNS C26000, BS CZ106. Any of these designations can be used in your enquiry; we will match the correct material.

Why can the invoiced weight differ from the calculated weight?

The calculator gives the theoretical weight. The actual weight varies with dimensional tolerances and cutting allowance; we invoice on the actual weight as weighed.

What information should I send for a quote?

We only need the grade, temper, size (thickness × width), total weight in kg and delivery location. If you fill in the calculator above, these details are added to the WhatsApp message automatically.
