C24000 brass rod/bar
C24000 is a brass alloy, mainly composed of copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn), belonging to the processing copper and copper alloy materials. It has the characteristics of high corrosion resistance, good mechanical properties and processing performance, and is widely used in hardware, machinery, construction, electrical and other fields, such as making gaskets, hexagonal bars, round bars, pipes, etc.

Detailed size range

General specifications:


According to the standard of wear-resistant brass rods, the diameter (or distance across the flats) of C24000 ranges from 5 to 80 mm, and the length ranges from 500 to 6000 mm, which is suitable for cross-sectional shapes such as round, hexagonal, and rectangular.

The hot extrusion (M30) specifications of conductive copper rods are 10 to 90 mm, and the drawing (H50) and annealing (060) specifications can be as low as 3 to 80 mm.

The specification range of extruded rods is wider, for example, the diameter of H62 brass round rods can reach 10 to 260 mm, and C24000 may be similar.

Special applications:


The diameter of copper rods for mineral insulated cables is 3 to 80 mm, and the cut length is required to be at least 20 m, with an allowable deviation of ±0.20 mm.

International Standards

The standardized specifications of C24000 involve multiple international and domestic standards:


Chinese Standards:


GB/T 5231-2012/2022: Its corresponding grade is listed as H80.


YS/T 649-2018: Covers the technical requirements for copper and copper alloy extruded rods.


International Standards:


ASTM: C24000 complies with American ASTM standards, such as ASTM B36 (General Standard for Brass Plates, Strips, and Rods).


ISO and JIS: Some products are marked as complying with ISO or Japanese JIS standards.


Main ingredients:


Copper (Cu): 78.5%-81.5% (Chinese standard GB/T 5231-2012), US UNS C24000 standard is 76%-80%


Zinc (Zn): Balance, about 18%-23.5%.

Impurity control:


Lead (Pb): Chinese standard requires ≤0.03% or ≤0.05%, while UNS C24000 contains 0.5% Pb (low-lead brass).

Iron (Fe): ≤0.05%-0.10%.

Phosphorus (P): ≤0.01%.

The total of other impurities is ≤0.3%.


Mechanical properties

Strength and plasticity:

Tensile strength: 360 MPa (52,000 psi), some data show lower (235 MPa), which may be related to different processing conditions (such as annealed or cold-processed).

Yield strength: 170 MPa (25,000 psi).

Elongation: 42% (50 mm gauge length), the plasticity of Chinese standard H80 is good, suitable for hot and cold pressure processing.

Elastic modulus:

117 GPa (17,000 ksi)

Hardness:

Brinell hardness 82 HB, relatively low, but can be improved by cold hardening.
