Bismuth Brass

Characteristics:
By replacing the lead element with bismuth, the material not only ensures excellent machinability but is also environmentally friendly. It possesses outstanding mechanical and electrical properties, making it an ideal substitute for leaded brass. The alloy is strictly lead-free according to RoHS.
Typical applications:
This alloy is widely used in TWS earphones, CMOS lens components, electronic products, hardware, connectors, valve cores, and food processing machinery.
