CW508L / CZ108HH is a high purity cold forming brass. It is used when severe bending properties are required. It can be machined but only with slow speeds and very light feeds.

• Often used for general purpose applications and forming operations when very good bending properties are required.

• Also offers very good general corrosion resistance in many natural atmospheres, a reasonable machinability and good cold heading properties

• Used for a variety of decorative components as well as general components such as heat exchangers, lamp caps, lamp-holder and switch components, general copper-smithing work, chains, eyelets, fasteners, hinges, locks, instrument covers and blanked articles such as instrument plates and wheels.

• Other uses include cold headed items including pins, rivets, screws, springs, radiator tanks and torch cases.
