Naval Brass Propeller Shaft Wire from China
Naval brass propeller shaft wire, composed of copper, zinc, tin, and arsenic, is a copper-zinc base alloy (brass) wire. It is classified under tariff item 7408.29.00 as 'other' copper alloy wire because it is not a copper-nickel or copper-nickel-zinc alloy. This wire is used in marine applications, such as propeller shafts, due to its corrosion resistance.
