NON FERROUS METALS
Rustproof Brass, Copper, Bronzes, Lead & Tin Non-Ferrous Metal Alloys & Industrial Products
NON FERROUS METALS SUPPLIER IN MUMBAI
Non-ferrous metals are used in countless manufacturing applications. You can find them in airplane fuselages as well as automotive engines, fasteners, wiring kits, building roofs, pipes and more. Unlike ferrous metals, non-ferrous metals do not contain any meaningful amount of iron. They are characterized by the presence of little or no iron. And without any meaningful amount of iron, non-ferrous metals offer several benefits.
Non-ferrous metals are rustproof. They can still corrode, but they can’t rust. Rusting is the result of iron being exposed to oxygen. When iron is exposed to oxygen, it converts to a new compound known as rust oxide, which is simply rust. Rusting, however, is exclusive to iron. Only iron, as well as iron alloys, can rust. Since non-ferrous metals contain little or no iron, they are protected from this phenomenon.

Round Bars & Hollow Bushes: 3 mm to 300 mm diameter in Brass, Copper, and Bronzes.
Square Bars: 6 mm to 100 mm A/F.
Hexagonal Bars: 6 mm to 85 mm A/F.
Flats, Strips & Busbars: Width 10 mm to 200 mm; Thickness 2 mm to 50 mm.
Sheets & Plates: Thickness 0.3 mm to 50 mm in Copper, Brass, and Tin sheets.
We supply Non-Ferrous Metal products in multiple finish conditions depending on application demands:
- Mill Finish / Extruded: Clean extruded bright condition for busbars, rods, and structural profiles.
- Bright Annealed & Polished: Smooth polished surface for architectural brass and electrical copper components.
- Refined Cast Ingots: Clean, dross-free lead ingots ready for battery smelting and radiation wall lining.
Key rustproof advantages of non-ferrous metals:
- Zero Iron Rusting: Because non-ferrous metals contain no iron, they cannot form iron oxide (rust).
- Protective Oxide Patina: Copper and brass develop a self-passivating protective patina when exposed to air, preventing internal deterioration.
- Marine & Chemical Immunity: Aluminium Bronze and Phosphor Bronze resist severe cavitation and seawater erosion.
Key industrial applications for non-ferrous metals:
- Aerospace & Automotive: Airplane fuselages, engine bearings, electrical wiring harnesses, radiator cores.
- Electrical & Industrial: High-voltage busbars, transformer connectors, heavy duty bronze bushes, battery plates, radiation shielding.
