Al Summan Metals is the reliable manufacturer and supplier based in the UAE, situated in Dubai, offering high-quality metal products. specializes in supplying a range of metals, including rivet brass rods. Their rivet brass rods are made up of 60-63% copper and 37-40% zinc, giving them excellent strength, machinability, and a high level of corrosion resistance. The various rods are available in different shapes for rivets, fasteners, electrical connectors, and also for decorative items. Al Summan Metals aims for precision and dependability and serves the automotive, construction, electrical, and marine industries by supplying both standard and customized parts.
Rivet brass rods contain roughly 60-63% Copper and 37-40% Zinc, together with a small amount of Lead to enhance machinability (Pb: 0.5-1.0%). It provides solid mechanical strength, with tensile strength ranging from 360-540 MPa, yield strength at 100-350 MPa, differing based on the temper and process. Elongation runs around 20-45%, indicating that they are ductile and readily shaped. The material holds a hardness rating of 80-150 HV and shows excellent resistance to corrosion and wear. Rivet brass rods deliver strong electrical and thermal conductivity of 120 W/m·K, which makes them ideal for both mechanical and electrical uses where solid durability and machinability are needed.

Rivet brass rods are weldable, though the process calls for specialized methods such as brazing or TIG welding because of the high zinc content in brass, which can produce fumes and reduce weld strength.
To preserve the quality of rivet brass rods, keep them in a cool, dry space shielded from moisture, humidity, and corrosive materials. Apply protective coverings to guard against scratches and oxidation.
Yes, rivet brass rods can be readily bent or formed thanks to their outstanding malleability and ductility, particularly when heated. That said, the right tools and methods are crucial to prevent cracking.
Copper-zinc alloy rods Rivet brass rods are adaptable and extensively employed across various industries thanks to their outstanding strength, resistance to corrosion, and ease of machining. Their primary use is in producing rivets, fasteners, and precision parts, delivering longevity and dependability. Such rods are frequently found in the automotive, electrical, and building industries for connecting and fixing metal components. They see additional use in ornamental products, plumbing fittings, and marine hardware owing to their appealing surface and resistance to wear and weathering. Rivet brass rods are equally prized for producing electrical connectors, terminals, and other parts that demand strong conductivity and mechanical capability.
