When it comes to machining wrought copper alloy based components, it's all about knowing what speeds and feeds to use, and what type of tooling is required. Many of these variables depend on the machinability of the material. With a wide variety of wrought copper alloys to choose from it is critical to get the machinability rating right. Best guesses equal broken tooling and scraped

Cut to Size Bar Stock - What It Means, and How It Benefits You
We use the term “cut to size” in a number of places on this site. But what are we actually talking about when we use this term? Cut to size bar stock means that we will cut your bar stock to the exact length you require. We don’t force you to buy any standard lengths or minimum purchase. In laymen’s terms, you only buy the material that you
