Annealed (OS035) C42200 Brass

OS035 C42200 brass is C42200 brass in the OS035 (annealed to 0.035mm grain size) temper. It has the lowest strength and highest ductility compared to the other variants of C42200 brass. The graph bars on the material properties cards below compare OS035 C42200 brass to: wrought brasses (top), all copper alloys (middle), and the entire database (bottom). A full bar means this is the highest value in the relevant set. A half-full bar means it's 50% of the highest, and so on.
