TECHNICAL FILE BRASS The brass is an copper and zinc alloy with multiple industrial applications. This material is easy to mechanize, engrave and melt. It is resistant to corrosion, saline conditions and is ductile, so it can be transformed through several processes. The Emac® profiles made of brass have been manufactured by extrusion, obtaining so a highly accurate dimensional tolerance. This guarantees its optimal appearance and functionality. Technical Features Mechanical Ductilidad Mechanical resistance Tensile strenght Corrosion resistance 100% in hot bending 30% in cold bending Physical Density Fire resistance M0 according to UNE 23-727-90 Non combustible against thermal action Antibacterial properties Working temperature Applications Brass is a material with multiple applications in industry. Its good properties physical-mechanical and its characteristic color are to be used in different applications, for example imitation jewelry, decoration articles, industrial products, pieces of marine use, musical instruments, etc. Emac® has a wide range of products made of brass in its catalog, which belong to different product families. The physical-mechanical properties of brass, provide it with the strenght required to be placed on floor and wall tiling indistinctly and offer an optimal protection of the installations.
