When your project demands a thin, workable metal that holds its shape without cracking, finding the right brass foil in the exact width you need can be a real challenge. Whether you're a hobbyist building scale models, a maker shimming mechanical assemblies, or an electronics enthusiast fabricating custom contacts and shields, these 0.3mm brass strips give you the precise starting material you need — cut to size, ready to work.
Each piece is made from H62 brass alloy — a copper-zinc composition known for its balance of strength, ductility, and corrosion resistance. At 0.3mm thick (approximately 0.012 inches), the sheet stock is thin enough to cut with heavy-duty scissors or tin snips, yet rigid enough to hold formed shapes. Available widths range from 10mm to 300mm (approx. 0.39 in to 11.8 in), with lengths of 500mm (approx. 19.7 in) or 1000mm / 1 metre (approx. 39.4 in).
Typical applications include DIY shim stock for machinery alignment, brass foil for jewellery making and metalwork crafts, thin sheet for model railway and architectural scale models, electrical contact strips for hobby electronics, and decorative inlay banding for woodworking projects.
Made from H62 copper-zinc brass — offering a reliable combination of ductility, moderate tensile strength, and natural corrosion resistance for indoor and light outdoor use.
At just 0.3mm (approx. 0.012 in) thick, this foil-grade sheet is easy to cut with scissors or snips, bend by hand, and form around curves without cracking.
Choose from widths of 10mm, 15mm, 20mm, 25mm, 30mm, 40mm, 50mm, 60mm, 100mm, 120mm, 150mm, 200mm, or 300mm — paired with 500mm or 1000mm lengths to suit your project.
Cuts cleanly with standard metal shears or heavy scissors. Bends without springback issues at this gauge. Suitable for soldering, riveting, and adhesive bonding.
Ideal for shim stock, electrical contacts, model making, jewellery fabrication, decorative inlay, heat shields, and craft metalwork across a wide range of DIY disciplines.
Each listing is for one strip in your chosen Thick × Width × Length combination. Select the exact size you need from the variant options above — no minimum order required.

Measure the area you need to cover or the slot you need to fill, then select the nearest width from the variant options. For shim applications, choose a width slightly wider than your target gap so you can trim to fit. For decorative inlay, match the width to your router bit or inlay channel.
At 0.3mm, this is foil-grade stock — it is not intended for load-bearing structural applications. It is well-suited for shims, gaskets, electrical contacts, decorative banding, and craft projects where thin, formable metal is required. For structural parts, consider thicker sheet stock.
H62 brass does not rust (it contains no iron), but it can develop a natural patina (darkening or greenish tarnish) over time when exposed to moisture and air. For indoor use, no treatment is needed. For outdoor or humid environments, applying a clear lacquer or wax will preserve the finish.
Yes. H62 brass solders readily with standard soft solder (tin-lead or lead-free) and a suitable flux. Clean the surface with fine abrasive or flux before soldering for best adhesion. It is also compatible with silver solder for stronger joints.
At 0.3mm thickness, this strip can be cut with heavy-duty scissors, tin snips, or a craft knife and metal ruler. For straight, clean cuts on wider strips, aviation snips or a guillotine-style metal shear will give the best results. Always deburr cut edges with a fine file or sandpaper.
Yes — 0.3mm brass strip is a popular choice among model railway builders, architectural model makers, and RC hobbyists. It is thin enough to replicate fine structural details, easy to cut and bend to shape, and takes paint and weathering finishes well.
