CW 711R
CW711R is a type of Naval Brass with a copper and tin content lesser than that of CW712R. However, it does contain a certain amount of Lead percentage higher than CW712R. Apart from this difference in the chemical composition, it has almost the same properties as CW712R to withstand against corrosion resistance and excellent for hot forming applications.

CZ112 grade is a type of Naval Brass that comprises of Higher copper content of 62% with an added element of Tin along with tiny particles of Lead. Tin is included to improve the corrosion resistance. The improvement of Tin enables the material to be used in both salt and fresh water applications. Tin also helps in resistance to Dezincification. Naval Brass has excellent strength levels and is also good for hot forming.
