CW623N
CW623N, a leaded brass alloy, represents a substantial enhancement over traditional 60/40 brass. This alloy is particularly well-suited for large-scale production of brass components where optimizing output and tool longevity are paramount considerations. Additionally, CW623N is ideal for applications where no additional cold forming is necessary after machining.
