C36300
Copper-Lead-Zinc Alloy
As one of the low lead alloys offered in the EcoStream™ family of products, Mueller Brass Company’s C36300 alloy provides a viable alternative to those manufacturers who are manufacturing products and components that require compliance with the recently approved “Reduction of Lead in Drinking Water Act.” The legislation re-defines the term “lead free” to mean “… no more that a weighted average of 0.25% lead when used with respect to the wetted surfaces of pipes, plumbing fittings and fixtures.
