À propos de notre laiton
Presque tout le laiton qu'on vend, c'est du laiton de décolletage C360, et c'est voulu: c'est le métal le plus facile à usiner de l'atelier, il se taraude propre et il a fière allure en le faisant. Raccords, pièces de robinet, bagues, quincaillerie décorative, mitres de couteau: le C360 couvre tout ça.
On le tient en barre plate, barre ronde, barre hexagonale, barre carrée et tôle. La barre hexagonale, c'est la discrète: si vous tournez des raccords, partir d'une barre hexagonale vous évite une étape de fraisage. Coupé à la longueur voulue, expédié partout au Canada, ou cueillette gratuite à l'atelier de Dartmouth.
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.
