Brass 260-Annealed Sheet 0.063" thick Retail Price

About 260|Cartridge brass (70% copper, 30% zinc). Named for its original use in ammunition cartridge cases. Excellent cold formability — it deep-draws beautifully. Not a machining alloy. In the shop, it’s soft, gummy, and produces long stringy chips. Its strength is in forming: stamped parts, drawn shells, radiator cores, and decorative hardware. Available mainly in sheet, strip, and wire. If someone specs 260 for a machined part, ask why — C360 machines dramatically better. Compare to C360 (far better machinability) and 230 red brass (higher copper, warmer color, better corrosion resistance).

About Sheet|Thin flat stock, generally under 3/16", used for stamping, bending, shearing, and laser/plasma cutting. It's the starting material for enclosures, panels, brackets, and formed sheet metal parts.
