DESCRIPTION
C69430: The silicon red brass is specified for underground service lines since it offers
great corrosion resistance to all types of potable waters, and has moderate strength and
good retention of spring properties. Silicon brasses are part of the subgroup of high
strength brasses. Silicon Brass contain less than 20% zinc and less than 6% silicon. The
silicon brasses are solid solution strengthened. Silicon brasses are typically chosen
because of their high strength and moderately high corrosion resistance.
