The three topics buyers ask about before they send a drawing.
Brass grades: IS 319 vs BS 249
Free-cutting brass IS 319 Type I is the default for CNC-turned parts — its 2–3.5% lead content is what gives clean threads and sharp profiles. BS 249 Type I is the near-equivalent many European drawings specify.
Specify a grade on your drawing and we machine to it; mill test certificates for the supplied grade are available on request.
Drawing-based parts →What turned tolerances actually mean
We typically hold ±0.02–0.05 mm on CNC-turned brass parts, where applicable. Tighter bores, fine threads and thin walls drive cost up — so tolerance your drawing for function, not for pride.
Send the drawing and we confirm the achievable tolerance before quoting — never after.
Turned components →Choosing a finish: natural, nickel, tin, chrome
Natural brass suits machined and internal parts. Nickel adds corrosion resistance and a clean look; tin suits solderability and electrical contact; chrome is decorative and hard-wearing.
Tell us the part’s environment on your RFQ and we will recommend — or simply specify the finish on your drawing.

Brass Grades for Precision Components: IS 319 vs BS 249 Explained
What free-cutting brass actually is, why IS 319 Type I is the default for CNC-turned parts, how BS 249 Type I maps to it, and when to specify an alternative or lead-free grade.

Our realistic ±0.02–0.05 mm capability band, which features drive cost up, and when paying for tighter tolerance is worth it — and when it isn’t.

What we stand behind
Our production adheres to strict ISO 9001:2015 quality standards — documented processes, in-process inspection and final testing. We do not publish a certification badge we cannot show you.
Material test certificates, inspection reports, certificates of conformity, HS codes and test-condition datasheets are available on request with your order. RoHS/REACH declarations can be provided for the grades you order. Additional OEM documentation can be discussed against project requirements.
From drawing to dispatch in four steps.
Send your drawing
2D/3D drawings or a physical sample — with material, finish and quantity if you have them.
Get a quote in 24–72 hours
We confirm tolerances, material and finish against your drawing, then quote — MOQ included.
Approve the sample
Samples can be arranged before bulk production so you sign off on the real part, not a promise.
Production & dispatch
Typical production lead time of 7–10 working days, then export-grade packing and dispatch.
