The chain is fine...but I ordered the wrong size. Nine links of the chain I ordered equals six of the size I wanted. My error...
How can I straighten out the springs? I can't use them coil uo as is.

When your project demands a reliable, workable metal sheet that cuts cleanly, bends without cracking, and holds its shape, finding the right thickness and width in one place is rarely straightforward. Whether you are a hobbyist machinist, a model maker, or a hands-on homeowner tackling repairs, these brass sheet rolls give you the exact gauge you need without ordering custom stock.
Each sheet is made from brass — a copper-zinc alloy known for its machinability, corrosion resistance, and warm golden appearance. Thickness options range from 0.1 mm to 0.8 mm (approximately 0.004 in to 0.031 in), with widths of 100 mm (≈3.94 in), 200 mm (≈7.87 in), and 300 mm (≈11.81 in), and lengths from 300 mm up to 1000 mm (≈11.8 in to 39.4 in). Packing quantities of 1, 2, or 4 pieces are available to match your project scale.
Typical applications include crafting precision shim stock for machinery alignment, fabricating decorative inlays and jewelry components, repairing or reinforcing household fixtures, building scale models and RC vehicle parts, and creating custom gaskets or heat shields for light-duty DIY metalwork projects.
Available from 0.1 mm to 0.8 mm (0.004 in – 0.031 in), covering ultra-thin foil work through to structural shim applications in a single product line.
Copper-zinc brass alloy delivers excellent machinability, natural corrosion resistance, and a consistent golden finish that ages gracefully without surface treatment.
Thin gauges cut cleanly with standard hobby knives or metal snips; thicker gauges respond well to bench shears and CNC routers, with minimal burring at cut edges.
Choose from 100 mm, 200 mm, or 300 mm widths and lengths up to 1000 mm, so you can select the closest match to your project dimensions and reduce waste.
Brass bonds reliably with standard soft solder and silver brazing alloys, making these sheets suitable for electrical connections, plumbing repairs, and decorative metalwork joints.
Order 1, 2, or 4 pieces per variant to match your exact project needs — whether you need a single test piece or a small batch for a production run.

For decorative inlays, jewelry, or ultra-thin shims, start with 0.1 mm – 0.2 mm. For general-purpose shim stock, gaskets, or light structural reinforcement, 0.3 mm – 0.5 mm is a practical range. For heavier-duty applications such as bearing shims or robust repair plates, 0.6 mm – 0.8 mm provides greater rigidity. If you are unsure, order a thinner gauge first — it is easier to stack thin sheets than to thin down a thick one.
Brass sheet in the 0.1 mm – 0.8 mm range is suited for light-duty structural tasks such as shimming, reinforcing, and patching rather than primary load-bearing applications. For heavier structural work, consider thicker plate stock. These sheets excel in precision fitting, decorative work, and applications where corrosion resistance and workability matter more than tensile strength.
Brass naturally develops a patina over time when exposed to air and moisture, shifting from bright gold toward a darker amber or brown tone. This patina is a surface oxide layer that actually protects the underlying metal from deeper corrosion. If you prefer to maintain the original bright finish, apply a clear lacquer or metal polish after cutting and forming. For outdoor or high-humidity environments, a protective coating is recommended.
Thin gauges (0.1 mm – 0.3 mm) cut cleanly with a sharp hobby knife, metal snips, or scissors designed for sheet metal. Thicker gauges (0.4 mm – 0.8 mm) are best handled with aviation snips, a bench shear, or a CNC router with a suitable end mill. For curved cuts, a jeweler's saw or rotary tool with a cutting disc works well. Always deburr cut edges with a fine file or sandpaper for safe handling.
Yes. Brass bonds reliably with standard 60/40 or lead-free soft solder using a rosin flux, and it responds well to silver brazing alloys for stronger joints. Clean the surface with fine abrasive paper or flux before soldering to remove any oxidation. Avoid overheating thin gauges (0.1 mm – 0.2 mm) as they can warp; use a lower-temperature iron and work quickly.
For shim stock, select a thickness that matches or slightly exceeds your required gap — you can always sand or lap a shim thinner but not thicker. For gaskets, 0.2 mm – 0.4 mm is a common range for light-duty fluid sealing. Choose a width and length that gives you enough material to cut your pattern with minimal waste. The 100 mm × 1000 mm roll is popular for long, narrow shim strips, while the 200 mm × 300 mm sheet suits compact gasket blanks.
No. Brass is a copper-zinc alloy, distinct from pure copper sheet (which is softer and more electrically conductive) and bronze (a copper-tin alloy, which is harder and more wear-resistant). Brass sits between the two in terms of hardness and machinability, and its golden color makes it a popular choice for decorative and precision mechanical applications where both appearance and workability matter.
