Brass Balls supplied by SDBALLS — PRODUCT REFERENCE / FINAL SPECIFICATION BY QUOTATION

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

What are brass balls?

Brass balls are copper-zinc alloy spheres supplied in controlled alloy grades for applications requiring corrosion resistance, machinability, electrical conductivity and a distinctive gold appearance.

Alloy selection changes hardness, forming behavior, conductivity and corrosion performance. Specify the exact brass grade, environment and dimensional requirement rather than accepting a generic brass description.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

QUALITY & DOCUMENTATION

Build the evidence into the purchase order.

Document requirements should be defined before quotation so the inspection method, sampling level, traceability and external testing can be planned correctly.

Material identity or alloy / ceramic grade verified against the agreed purchase specification
Diameter, tolerance and geometry inspected using the method appropriate to the ordered precision level
Hardness, density, wall thickness or coating hardness tested when applicable to the product
Surface condition, finish and visual limits checked against approved samples or drawings
Roundness / sphericity or roller geometry inspected when specified
Lot identification and batch traceability maintained through controlled records
Material certificates and inspection reports available when agreed before quotation
Third-party testing, compliance documents and customer inspection plans supported by agreement

PRODUCT FAQ

Answers for engineering and purchasing teams.

Which brass alloy should I specify?

C26000, C27000 and C28000 differ in zinc content and performance. Select against machining, corrosion, hardness and regulatory needs.

Are brass balls magnetic?

Brass is generally non-magnetic, although trace response can depend on contamination, plating or adjacent components.

Can brass balls be threaded or drilled?

Yes. Brass is highly machinable and supports threaded holes, through holes, flats and other custom features.

Will brass tarnish?

Yes, exposed brass can darken. Surface protection, plating, sealed packing and the service environment influence appearance.

Can you provide material certificates and inspection reports?

Yes. State the required certificate, inspection method, sampling plan and report format before quotation so documentation can be included in the supply plan.

Do you support samples and small-quantity orders?

Yes. SDBALLS Industry Corp. supports North American prototype, qualification, repair, R&D and small-batch requirements, subject to material, size and production availability.
