FAQs of EN 12449 CuZn30As CW 505L 70-30 Lead Free Brass:
Q: How is EN 12449 CuZn30As CW 505L 70-30 Lead Free Brass manufactured?
A: This alloy is produced by blending copper (70%), zinc (29.3%), and arsenic (0.7%), then casting and extruding it into round bars. The material is processed to meet EN 12449 standards, often available in half hard or hard tempered conditions, ensuring consistent quality and mechanical properties.
Q: What are the typical applications for CW 505L 70-30 Lead Free Brass?
A: CW 505L is commonly used in sanitary fittings, water supply lines, plumbing parts, and electrical components due to its excellent corrosion resistance and lead-free composition. Its attractive, polished appearance also suits visible installation areas.
Q: When should I choose CW 505L alloy over other brass alloys?
A: Select CW 505L when you require a lead-free, RoHS-compliant material with strong corrosion resistance and structural integrity, especially for potable water systems or electrical uses where health and safety regulations are strict.
Q: Where can these brass round bars be sourced from?
A: These bars are available from exporters, manufacturers, and suppliers in India, offering various lengths (up to 6 m) and diameters (4 mm to 60 mm) as per project requirements, and produced to precise tolerances (H9/H11) according to EN 12449.
Q: What benefits does the arsenic addition provide?
A: The addition of 0.7% arsenic enhances the alloys corrosion resistanceespecially against dezincification in water environmentsmaking it suitable for plumbing and sanitary applications where longevity is critical.
Q: How does this brass maintain its surface finish and color?
A: CW 505L round bars feature a bright, polished surface with a golden yellow hue, resulting from meticulous production processes. This not only improves their aesthetic value but also aids in preventing tarnish or oxidation in typical environments.
Q: Can this brass be used for electrical applications?
A: Yes, with around 26% IACS electrical conductivity, CW 505L is suitable for non-critical electrical components. Its robust mechanical strength and lead-free composition further support safe and efficient usage in such settings.
