Lead Free Brass Pipes and Tubes Supplier and Exporter

Lead free brass pipes and tubes are made from yellow brass with no lead added, such as C27000, C27200 and C27400. The lead is held to a low residual limit, 0.07 to 0.10 per cent maximum. They are used for plumbing and sanitary fittings, appliances, HVAC parts and general engineering.

Not entirely. No lead is added, but the standard allows a small residual amount, 0.07 to 0.10 per cent maximum for these grades. The commonly cited drinking water limit is a weighted average of 0.25 per cent across wetted surfaces. Check the certificate and your own regulations.

We supply C27000 65/35, C27200 63/37 and C27400 63/37 yellow brass tube against your drawing. Each has its own page with composition, standards and sizes. Tell us the grade and standard on your drawing and we will confirm availability.

Brass pipe is sized by nominal bore with a fixed wall, and is used for water and gas lines. Brass tube is sized by outside diameter and wall thickness, and is used for fittings, heat exchange and parts. Tell us which your drawing calls for and the size.

It can be, but the grade alone does not decide it. Lead limits, dezincification in aggressive water and the finished part's certification all matter. Yellow brass with 37 per cent zinc can lose zinc in aggressive water, so ask for a dezincification resistant grade. Tell us the water and the service.

Free cutting brass such as C36000 has 2.5 to 3.7 per cent lead, which breaks chips and makes it machine fast. Lead free brass has almost none, so it machines more slowly and suits drawing, bending and forming. For parts turned on a lathe in volume, ask us about free cutting bar.
