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 metal that holds tight tolerances, resists corrosion, and machines cleanly, finding the right flat stock in the exact size you need can be a real challenge. Whether you're a hobbyist building custom enclosures, a maker fabricating decorative inlays, or a small-workshop technician repairing mechanical components, this H62 solid brass sheet gives you a reliable, ready-to-cut starting point without ordering oversized stock and wasting material.
Each piece is cut from H62 brass alloy — a copper-zinc composition known for its balance of strength, machinability, and natural corrosion resistance. Sheets are available in three thicknesses: 0.8mm (~0.031 in), 1mm (~0.039 in), and 1.5mm (~0.059 in), across four flat dimensions: 100×100mm (~3.94×3.94 in), 100×200mm (~3.94×7.87 in), 150×150mm (~5.91×5.91 in), and 200×200mm (~7.87×7.87 in). Packs of 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, or 10 pieces are available depending on the size selected.
Typical use cases include crafting custom shim stock for machinery alignment, fabricating decorative brass inlay panels for woodworking projects, cutting gasket blanks for plumbing or HVAC repair, and producing small electrical contact plates or grounding tabs for electronics enclosures — all applications where a flat, dimensionally consistent brass sheet for DIY metalworking is essential.
Made from H62 copper-zinc alloy, offering a well-established balance of tensile strength, ductility, and natural resistance to atmospheric corrosion — suitable for both indoor and outdoor applications.
Choose from 0.8mm, 1mm, or 1.5mm thickness to match your project's structural or aesthetic requirements — from thin decorative veneers to sturdier mechanical shims.
Available in 100×100mm, 100×200mm, 150×150mm, and 200×200mm formats, giving you the right footprint for small precision parts or larger panel work without excess waste.
Order 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, or 10 pieces per pack (availability varies by size), so you can stock exactly what you need for a single repair or a multi-piece production run.
H62 brass machines cleanly with standard tooling and accepts soft solder, silver solder, and brazing rod — making it straightforward to join, tap, drill, or shape on the bench.
The natural brass surface resists oxidation in typical workshop and indoor environments. For outdoor or high-humidity use, a clear lacquer coat is recommended to maintain appearance over time.

For decorative inlays, engraving blanks, or thin shim applications, 0.8mm is typically sufficient. For general-purpose mechanical shims, gasket blanks, or structural panels, 1mm offers a good balance of rigidity and workability. The 1.5mm option is best when you need added stiffness or plan to tap threads directly into the sheet.
Yes. The 0.8mm and 1mm sheets can be cut cleanly with quality tin snips or aviation shears. The 1.5mm sheet is better suited to a bench shear, angle grinder with a metal-cutting disc, or CNC router. All thicknesses can be drilled with standard HSS drill bits using cutting fluid.
H62 brass has good natural corrosion resistance in dry and indoor environments. For outdoor or high-humidity applications, we recommend applying a clear lacquer or protective coating after fabrication to prevent tarnishing and surface oxidation over time.
H62 is a standard copper-zinc brass alloy (approximately 60–63% copper) widely used for its combination of strength, machinability, and moderate cost. Compared to H59, it has slightly higher copper content and better corrosion resistance. Compared to H68 or H70, it is stiffer and more suited to structural applications rather than deep drawing.
Yes. H62 brass is well-suited to soft soldering (tin-lead or lead-free solder), silver soldering, and brazing. Clean the surface with flux before joining, and use a soldering iron or torch appropriate for the sheet thickness. Thicker 1.5mm sheets may require more heat input to achieve a good joint.
The sheets are supplied in a flat, mill-finish condition. Minor surface marks consistent with sheet metal handling may be present. If your application requires a polished or mirror finish, light sanding with progressively finer abrasive paper followed by a metal polish will achieve the desired result.
The 200×200mm sheet offers the largest single-piece area and is the most efficient starting point if you plan to cut multiple smaller parts. For example, a 200×200mm sheet can yield four 100×100mm pieces with minimal waste. Multi-piece packs are also available to reduce per-unit cost on larger runs.
