Naval Brass Rods are typically made up of around 60% Copper, 39% Zinc, and about 1% Tin, which boosts their corrosion resistance. This alloy merges the strength of brass with enhanced protection against dezincification and seawater corrosion. The mechanical properties feature a tensile strength between 380 and 550 MPa, along with a yield strength of roughly 150 to 320 MPa. Naval Brass rods are not only ductile and easy to machine but also durable in saltwater and chemical environments. The inclusion of tin significantly enhances their resistance to erosion and corrosion, making them ideal for marine uses.
