Value Collection RNDRD-1.5-36 Brass Round Rod Alloy 360

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION RNDRD-1.5-36 is a solid brass round rod measuring 1.5 inches in diameter and 36 inches in length, made from Alloy 360 brass. Alloy 360 is a free-machining brass grade widely used in precision machining applications due to its excellent chip-breaking characteristics and dimensional stability. This rod meets ASTM-B16 standards, making it a reliable choice for fabrication, repair, and custom manufacturing work. At 20.05 pounds, it is a substantial bar stock suitable for lathe turning, milling, and general shop work. Machinists, pipefitters, and metal fabricators commonly use this stock for creating fittings, valve components, shafts, and bushings.

This brass round rod is suited for multi-purpose industrial and commercial fabrication environments. Its free-machining properties make it well-suited for high-volume production runs as well as one-off custom parts. Typical applications include the production of plumbing fittings, electrical connectors, decorative hardware, and mechanical components requiring corrosion resistance and good thermal conductivity. The 36-inch length provides sufficient stock for multiple parts per bar depending on finished component dimensions.

• Consistent dimensional tolerances support precision machining operations

Compatibility

Designed as a general-purpose Alloy 360 brass round rod for multi-purpose machining, fabrication, and repair applications across industrial and trade settings.

Installation Notes

Cutting and machining of brass rod stock should be performed by qualified machinists or fabricators using appropriate tooling for non-ferrous metals. Eye protection and proper chip guards are required when turning or milling. Secure the workpiece firmly in a chuck or vise before machining to prevent movement. Dispose of brass chips and swarf in accordance with local regulations for non-ferrous metal scrap.
