Very simple to order various parts for a small project and know how much it would cost before commiting to it. I was able to quickly plan and build a small forge and have metal to forge.
great website, easy to navigate, found material that my larger supplier was no longer carrying. I will definitely be ordering again
Fast, quick, and easy. So easy to just order exactly what you need rather than arguing with someone at a welding shop on what they think you need
Great product. Exactly as described. They are very easy to deal with and shipping was very quick. I'm very happy. I brush the aluminum and then UV print on it. It worked very well.

About our brass
Almost all the brass we sell is C360 free-machining brass, and that's on purpose: it's the easiest metal in the shop to machine, threads clean, and looks good doing it. Fittings, valve parts, bushings, decorative hardware, knife bolsters: C360 covers them.
We stock it as flat bar, round bar, hex bar, square bar, and sheet. Hex is the sleeper: if you're turning fittings, starting from hex bar saves a milling step. Cut to the inch, shipped across Canada, or pick up free at the Dartmouth shop.
What is C360 brass good for?
Machining, first and last. C360 is free-machining brass, the nicest metal you'll ever put on a lathe: fittings, valve parts, knobs, inserts, small bushings, and one-off repair parts come off the tool clean with chips that behave. If your project involves a lathe, a mill, or a tap, this rack is where it starts. Weighing 360 against 260 cartridge brass? Our 360 vs 260 guide covers machining vs forming, with June 2026 prices.
What shapes can you get?
Hex bar, round bar, flat bar, square bar, and sheet. Hex earns its keep on fittings work: the wrench flats come free with the bar. As of June 2026, a 12″ piece of 1/2″ C360 hex runs $15.38 CAD, cut to ±1/8″ with no cutting fee, and prices update daily.
Does brass tarnish?
Yes, and that's half the appeal. Bright brass dulls to brown over months of handling; outdoors it goes darker faster. Want it to stay bright? Lacquer it after polishing. Want character? Let it age. One honest limit: for hardware that lives in salt water, bronze outlasts brass, so put the boat parts there.
Any machining tips for C360?
It barely needs them. Sharp tools, modest speeds, and it cuts dry for most work. Two habits help: support thin sections so they don't grab, and chamfer before tapping, the threads come out glassy. If you're choosing between C360 and copper for a part that gets machined, choose C360 and thank yourself at the lathe.
