What Is H62 Brass?

H62 brass is a kind of ordinary brass with an average copper content of 62%. It has good mechanical properties, good plasticity in hot state and good plasticity in cold state, good machinability, easy brazing and welding, and resistance to Corrosion, but easy to produce corrosion cracking.

H62 brass strip

Indicates an ordinary brass strip with an average copper content of 62%. Among them, H—the first letter of the pinyin of the Chinese character “黄”, ​​and 62—the average content of copper;

On the basis of ordinary brass, copper alloys with other elements added are called special brass, which is still represented by “H”, followed by the chemical symbols and average composition of other added elements. For example, H62 has a copper content of 60.5% to 63.5%. , The balance is the zinc content; and HAl59-3-2 means that its copper content is 57% to 60%, aluminum content is 2.5% to 3.5%, nickel content is 2% to 3%, and the rest is zinc content.

Brass is divided into three types: ordinary brass, special brass and cast brass. Cast brass starts with ZCu followed by the symbols of other elements and their average content.

chemical composition

Copper (Cu): 60.5~63.5%
Iron (Fe): ≤ 0.15%
Lead (Pb): ≤ 0.08%
Antimony (Sb): ≤0.005%
Bismuth (Bi): ≤0.002%
Phosphorus (P): ≤0.01%
Zinc (Zn): balance
Sum of impurities: ≤0.5%

characteristic

Ordinary brass has good mechanical properties, good plasticity in hot state, and plasticity in cold state, good machinability, easy brazing and welding, corrosion resistance, but easy to cause corrosion cracking. In addition, the price is cheap, and it is a common brass variety that is widely used.

H62 (that is, four or six brass). The β phase is much harder than the α phase at room temperature, so it can be used for parts that bear larger loads. The α+β two-phase brass can be hot-worked above 600℃. α+β two-phase brass microstructure: α is a bright white solid solution, β is an ordered solid solution based on CuZn. The strong electric field inhibits the void space during high temperature deformation of H62 brass.

use

H62 copper rods are free-cutting brass, which are divided into environmental protection brass rods and ordinary brass rods. Generally, the authentic 58-3 copper rods and 59-1 copper rods are extruded. The copper rods produced by ordinary continuous casting copper rods cannot reach all aspects. The copper rods of the extrusion process have good tensile properties. High hardness and high straightness.

Generally, there is a relatively large amount of precision copper parts such as auto parts, medical parts, and electrical parts. It can be used for various deep drawing and bending stress parts, such as pins, rivets, washers, nuts, pipes, pressure gauge springs, screens, radiator parts, etc.
