Sequoia Brass & Copper is a leading supplier of brass, copper, and bronze alloys in a variety of shapes, dimensions, and lengths. We also provide precision cutting services for sheet, plate, and bar stock when standard lengths don’t meet an application’s requirements. We use advanced cutting equipment and prepare all materials in-house so you receive the specified materials with a quick turn around time.
From prototyping to high-volume production quantities, Sequoia can simplify the process of procuring nonferrous copper alloy shapes and materials. We support a range of industries including electronics, aerospace, architecture, and heavy machinery. Keep reading to learn more about our precision cutting capabilities.
Plate Cutting Capabilities
We use Metlsaw plate saws to process plate materials. These precision cutting tools can achieve dimensional tolerances to ±0.020 in. and clean, burr-free edges. This reduces secondary grinding and finishing, which means materials are ready to ship to customers more quickly. Precision dimensions also promote efficient material use and reduce waste in electrical, architectural, and other applications.
Bar Stock Cutting Capabilities
Sequoia processes round, square, and rectangular bar stock using HE&M horizontal band saws. All of our bar shapes have consistent surface quality and can be cut to matching lengths to ±0.062 in. tolerances. By providing bar stock that’s uniform and without variation in length, our products facilitate higher throughput and precision in CNC machining and other manufacturing operations.
Rod Cutting Capabilities
We also provide custom precision cutting services for round shapes. As with our bar stock cutting capabilities, we can achieve close tolerances and excellent uniformity, rod after rod so you receive materials that are ready for use without further prep on your part. We can cut large or small quantities of any stock material efficiently.
Sheet Metal Cutting Capabilities
We use an Amada mechanical shear to cut thin-gauge metal sheet materials. This equipment minimizes kerf loss. Shearing helps prepare materials for fabrication in many applications including electrical enclosures, HVAC components, and precision panels. We also offer PVC protection for full sheets with clear 4mil non-laser film.
Tube Cutting Capabilities
Sequoia’s tube cutting equipment is compatible with various diameters and wall thicknesses. The cutting process yields smooth, squared ends without deforming the tube shape. Cutting tubes to uniform lengths saves you time by reducing prep time for welding, bending, assembly, and other downstream processes. Cut tubes are suitable for fluid transfer applications, structural supports, architectural elements, and other purposes.
The Benefits of Sequoia’s Custom Cutting Services
When you need nonferrous metal cut to size, Sequoia is the smart choice. All cutting operations are performed in-house with our plate saws, horizontal band saws, and mechanical shears, which create clean and precise cuts.
By keeping our inventory and cutting services under one roof, we maintain continuity throughout your order and eliminate extra transportation and turn around time. And with decades of experience with copper, brass, and bronze, our team understands the nuances of working with these alloys to avoid damage.
There are several advantages to working with Sequoia for all of your nonferrous metal needs, including:
- Tight dimensional tolerances for less wasted material and finishing.
- Extensive inventory of copper, brass, and bronze stock in various sizes and forms.
- Quality assurance for consistent product quality.
- In-house cutting for precision and shorter lead times.
- Rapid turnaround for small and large orders.
- Material expertise and responsive customer service.
