Brass Plate 353 is also known as engravers brass because it's easy to machine, stiff, resists corrosion, and polishes to an exceptional sheen. 353 is less formable than other brass alloys and is can be soldered or brazed. It is typically used in placards, signs, nuts, gears, door hardware, and decorative furniture components.
