330 Brass Product Guide
Applications | Mechanical and Chemical Data
Overview
With a mixture of good strength, formability, and corrosion resistance, 330 brass is mostly used in tubing. It is also easier to machine and work than other forms of brass. Higher than average lead content makes welding difficult, and it is not recommended. The poles that firemen and Ghostbusters slide down are overwhelmingly made from 330 brass.
