Brass 385 T bar (architectural brass) is a free machining copper zinc alloy designed for applications requiring excellent surface finish, corrosion resistance, and decorative appeal. Known for its ability to polish to a bright, high quality finish, C38500 is widely used in architectural and ornamental applications.
This alloy offers good machinability comparable to 360 brass while providing enhanced aesthetic qualities for visible components. It performs well in hot working processes but is less suitable for cold forming and is not recommended for welding. Brass 385 is ideal for applications where appearance, durability, and ease of fabrication are key priorities.
Applications: Architectural trim, furniture components, ornamental hardware, decorative framing, fixtures.
