CW508L | CuZn37

CuZn37, also CW508L, is a brass alloy commonly used for cold forming.
Although other brass alloys may offer better formability, CW508L is often preferred because its lower copper content makes the material economically attractive.
Thanks to very good formability, the alloy is suitable for classic components such as tubes and wires as well as optical and functional parts like hinges, handles or fittings.
Furthermore, CuZn37 is also suitable for thermal processing and joining methods such as forging or welding.
