Brass Sheet Metal Thickness

Samples of our brass sheet metal are available usually free of charge to designers architects and businesses.

Brass sheet metal thickness.

We stock brass sheet in thickness 0 3mm 0 4mm 0 5mm 0 7mm 0 9mm 1 2mm 1 5mm 2 0mm and 3 0mm. 260 brass sheet plate aka cartridge brass or yellow brass is the most popular and economical of the brass alloys. Keep in mind that some manufacturers distributors and end users get the gauge thickness wrong. A selection of pre cut sizes are available in our online store.

Our brass sheets. Brass sheet plate offers good corrosion resistance to many chemical corrodents as well as industrial atmospheres and marine environments. 50mm to 1220mm length. We sell part sheets full sheets and cut to size.

This is known as the manufacturers standard gage for sheet steel. The equivalent thicknesses differ for each gauge size standard which were developed based on the weight of the sheet for a given material. For example 18 gauge steel according to a gauge conversion chart is 0 0478 inch or 1 214 millimeter. 40 22 84 22.

A gauge conversion chart can be used to determine the actual thickness of sheet metal in inches or millimeters. For other materials such as aluminum and brass the thicknesses will be different. Sheet metal gauge size chart gauge or gage sizes are numbers that indicate the thickness of a piece of sheet metal with a higher number referring to a thinner sheet. They might use the wrong metal s gauge chart or pick an obsolete standard when labeling a sheet of material.

Wire conductor sizes are also measured in gauge and are equivalent to the non ferrous thicknesses listed below but we have an article specific to wire gauge. Metal sheet thickness is measured in gauge. If you re having trouble picking out a thickness take a look at our page on deciding on a material thickness. The table below provides conversion to inches.

Sheet metal thickness gauges for steel are based on a weight of 41 82 pounds per square foot per inch of thickness. Brass sheet products are a soft ductile metal that brazes cuts and machines easily.
