C46400 Naval Brass Plates, C46400 Naval Brass Sheet, ASME SB171 Naval Brass, Naval Brass Alloy Sheets Manufacturer & Supplier
USA Piping Solution is a major supplier of Naval Brass which is a very versatile and traditional marine alloy. We also sell a wide variety of these products, such as C46400 Naval Brass Plates, Naval Brass Sheets, ASME SB171 Naval Brass sheets and specialized versions, such as C46200 Naval Brass Cold Heading Wire, C46400 Naval Brass Lead-Free, or high-leaded versions, C48200 Naval Brass Medium Lead and C48500 Naval Brass High Leaded.
The nominal content of standard C46400 Naval Brass is made of about 60 percent Copper, 39.2 percent Zinc, and 0.8 percent Tin. The addition of tin is significant, as it adds hardness as well as more importantly the corrosion resistance of the copper-zinc alloy. This addition is very effective in protecting the alloy against dezincification, which is extreme dealloying whereby the zinc component is removed selectively by corrosion. Through this resistance, the Naval Brass is very resistant to the attack of saltwater and works great in fresh water as well. Lead variants are also added to enhance machinability.
The C46400 Naval Brass Plate that was sourced at USA Piping Solution is an excellent material as it is a high-strength and corrosion-resistant material and it has top formability. It is used extensively in processes like bending, upsetting, drawing, heading, shearing and blanking. The characteristics of the alloy such as high tensile strength, high galling and wear resistance, fatigue and stress corrosion cracking makes it very durable. We are providing these Naval Brass Sheets in different forms such as Naval Brass foil and Naval Brass Strip, which are obtained in qualified mills all over the world. Our C46400 Naval Brass Sheet is of the required quality according to the ASME SB171 Naval Brass.
Naval Brass Plates and Sheets are mainly applied in hard and highly corrosive environments as it is a hard and strong material and therefore resists corrosion. This renders them indispensable to Marine Hardware i.e. propeller shafts, valve stems and general nautical fittings. They have excellent heat transfer properties, applied in Heat Transfer equipment such as heat exchange baffles and condenser plates. It is also durable, which means that it can be used as an Industrial Component (wear strips, fasteners and structural parts) and even Ammunition components (bolts and bullet cases).

Applications of Naval Brass Plates
The quality of the Naval Brass Plate that improves its performance in various harsh conditions is its long-lasting strength and dezincification resistance. These applications make use of the hardiness of the alloy especially in situations where it is in contact with water and other corrosive elements on a continuous basis.
- Marine Applications: Naval brass is extensively utilized in ships, propeller shafts, marine hardware and seawater, because of its great corrosion resistance.
- Industrial Applications: Can be used on valves, fasteners, and fittings that are in corrosive industrial applications.
- Wear Plates: These come in handy in the situation that a lot of strength and wear resistance are needed, e.g., slide plates, and bushings.
- Fresh Water Applications: This is widely applied in items that have contact with fresh water such as pumps and piping systems.
- Constructions: Applied in architectural and structural elements in which durability and corrosion resistance is needed.
