Why Brass Is the Trusted Material for Fuse Gear and Switchgear
Ask any panel builder what they worry about most, and the answer is usually heat. Fuse and switchgear components sit in the path of live current. They warm up under load, and during a fault they see far more than that. A weak contact or a badly machined terminal can turn a small problem into a shutdown, or a fire.
Brass handles this well. It conducts electricity efficiently, resists corrosion, machines cleanly and doesn’t ignite under high voltage. It also holds its shape through thousands of heating and cooling cycles.
That’s why brass has been the default choice for HRC fuse connectors, terminals, contacts and links for decades.
What makes brass a good fit
- Reliable conductivity. Free-cutting brass carries current well, and plating improves contact performance further.
- Heat tolerance. Brass melts at roughly 900°C or higher, far above normal operating temperatures.
- Corrosion resistance. Brass stands up to humid, coastal and industrial environments where steel would rust.
- Machinability. Free-cutting grades can be turned into complex, tight-tolerance shapes at high speed.
- Recyclability. Brass scrap is valuable and can be fully recycled, which helps with sustainability targets.

About OK Engineers: Four Generations of Brass Precision
OK Engineers (Om Kailash Engineers) has been turning brass in Jamnagar, Gujarat since the 1970s. Jamnagar is widely known as India’s brass capital, and our workshop grew up inside that ecosystem of toolmakers, platers, raw-material suppliers and packers.
Today we’re a fourth-generation family business. That matters to buyers. It means the person who answers your email usually knows the shop floor personally, and a problem doesn’t get lost between departments.
We’ve exported for decades to the USA, UK, Germany, France, Spain, Russia and Switzerland, as well as the Middle East. Our customers are electrical OEMs, switchgear assemblers, fuse manufacturers and distributors who need consistent parts, shipment after shipment.
Our address: Plot No. 776, GIDC Phase-2, Dared, Jamnagar – 361004, Gujarat, India.
Our Range of Brass Fuse Gear Parts
Fuse gear is a small assembly where every part has a job. If one component is out by even a fraction of a millimetre, the whole unit can fail its test. We machine each part to your specification and check it before it ships.

Materials, Grades and Finishes
Choosing the right alloy is one of the most important early decisions. We help you pick the grade based on conductivity, strength and machining needs, not just on price.
Brass Grades We Work With
- Free-cutting brass (IS 319 / BS 249 type): the most common choice for turned parts, with excellent machinability.
- CW614N / CW617N (EN 12164 / 12165): popular with European buyers.
- C36000 (ASTM B16): the standard free-cutting brass in North America.
- Other copper alloys: available on request for special applications, such as higher strength or lead-restricted requirements.
Plating and Surface Finishes
- Natural (bright) finish
- Tin plating, which resists oxidation and solders easily
- Nickel plating, for hardness and corrosion resistance
- Silver plating for high-conductivity contacts, on request
How Brass Compares With Other Materials
Buyers sometimes ask whether aluminium or steel could do the job more cheaply. Sometimes they can, but not without a trade-off.
Brass vs Other Common Materials for Electrical Parts
Property | Brass (free-cutting) | Copper | Aluminium | Steel |
Electrical conductivity (approx. % IACS) | ~26–28% | ~100% | ~61% | ~3–10% |
Corrosion resistance | Very good | Very good | Good (forms oxide layer) | Poor without coating |
Machinability | Excellent | Fair (gummy) | Good | Fair |
Strength / hardness | Good | Soft | Lower | High |
Relative cost | Moderate | Higher | Lower | Lower |
Best for | Precision turned contacts, terminals, fittings | Busbars, high-current paths | Lightweight conductors | Structural parts |
OK Engineers Quality Standards and Certifications
We treat quality as a habit, not a certificate on the wall. That said, the certificates matter, and buyers are right to ask for them.
- ISO 9001:2015 certified quality management system. You can read more about what this means at ISO.
- RoHS-compliant parts available for the electrical and electronics sector. See the European Commission’s RoHS guidance for the current rules.
- Material test certificates available with shipments on request.
- Inspection reports (dimensional and plating thickness) available on request.
Fuse and switchgear products are usually tested against standards such as IEC 60269 (low-voltage fuses), IEC 60947 (LV switchgear) and IEC 62271 (HV switchgear). You can find these on the IEC. Your finished product carries the certification, and our job is to make sure each component doesn’t let it down.
Precision You Can Measure
Fuse gear and switchgear parts don’t leave much room for error. A terminal that’s too loose can heat up. A thread that’s slightly off can cross-thread on your assembly line.
We machine brass parts from simple to complex geometries with tolerances as tight as ±0.02 mm, in any volume. We run CNC turning centres and multi-spindle machines, and we check parts with calibrated inspection equipment.
Our parts are made to DIN, ISO, Metric and UN standards, or to your own drawing.
Our Manufacturing Process, Step by Step
- Drawing review. Our engineers check your drawing or sample and flag any manufacturability issues early.
- Material selection. We choose the right brass grade and source certified rod.
- CNC turning and machining. Parts are made on CNC and multi-spindle machines.
- Secondary operations. Drilling, tapping, knurling, slotting and threading as required.
- Surface treatment. Plating and finishing to your specification.
- Quality inspection. Dimensional, visual and thread checks at each stage.
- Export packing. Moisture-safe packing labelled for smooth customs and warehouse handling.

How to Buy Brass Fuse Gear Parts: A Buyer’s Checklist
Whether you buy from us or anyone else, here’s what to check before you place an order:
- Ask for the material grade and a test certificate. A “brass” label isn’t enough.
- Confirm tolerances in writing. Check them against your drawing.
- Request sample parts first. Test them in your assembly.
- Check the plating thickness. Thin plating wears off quickly.
- Review the packing method. Poor packing causes transit damage and corrosion.
- Confirm lead time and MOQ. Make sure they fit your production plan.
- Verify certifications. Ask for current certificates, not old ones.
