C33000 Low Leaded Brass

Atlas carries C33000 Low Leaded Brass Tube. We carry a range of sizes and will cut the material to length. This alloy is ideally suited for general purpose usage in minimally corrosive environments. The lead in the alloy, prevents good welding, but is good for machining, forming, and pinching.

Some of the typical areas that C33000 is used in are:

  • Plumbing,
  • Pump and Power Cylinders,
  • Liners,
  • Primers,
  • Trap Lines,
  • Pump Lines,
