90/10 Red Brass Tubes

Red Brass Pipe / 90/10 Red Brass Tubes

90/10 Red Brass Tubes are copper-rich alloy tubes containing approximately 90% copper and 10% zinc, offering excellent corrosion resistance, strength, and durability. They perform exceptionally well in seawater and industrial environments, with high resistance to dezincification. Common applications include marine systems, heat exchangers, condensers, plumbing, and fluid transport equipment where long service life and reliability are critical.

CuZn10 has very good cold forming properties and is well suited for e.g. coinage, beating, embossing. This alloy has a higher strength as pure copper. It has good welding and brazing properties as well as a good corrosion resistant and is not fragile to stress corrosion and dezincification. CuZn10 is principally used in jewelry, metal goods, and watch industry and in electronic industry for installation parts. We produce qualities with grain sizes below 5 mm if needed.
