CNC machining Brass CZ121, CZ112 / CW712R

Brass is a metal commonly used in various industries due to its various desirable properties. The alloy contains copper, zinc, and other metals such as magnesium, iron, and lead. These metals all contribute to their properties, and, the inclusion of lead makes it very machinable. This is why the metal is quite suitable for brass CNC machining.

Brass doesn’t have a natural coat of its own. However, its natural golden surface means you can use a brass machined part just as machined. If the part has cosmetic applications, you might want to give it an external finish.
