Brass Tube

Brass tube has multiple uses - specifically the automotive, aerospace, and power generation industries. Easy to machine and with a high level of resistance to corrosion, brass tube is a primary choice for pipework and plumbing products. With its visually pleasing finish and good workability, it is also widely used in architectural components, interior fittings, artworks and in the production of musical instruments.

Available from stock in an extensive range of diameters and wall thicknesses, John Hood’s precision-drawn brass tube can be cut to your individual length requirements.
