Lead-free

Diehl Brass Solutions offers a comprehensive portfolio of lead-free brass alloys that are specially tailored to the requirements of modern drinking water applications.

Lead-free Lead-free

ready for the future of drinking water

Drinking water is our most important resource - essential for life and fundamental to our health. That is why the requirements for materials that come into contact with drinking water are increasing worldwide. 

Diehl Brass Solutions offers a comprehensive portfolio of lead-free brass alloys specifically tailored to the requirements of modern drinking water applications. Our materials meet the strictest international standards and offer maximum safety, efficiency and environmental compatibility.

  • eZeebrass – The New Lead-Free Standard Brass Sets the Benchmark.

    Thanks to its optimized composition, eZeebrass meets the highest requirements for machinability and processing. By incorporating magnesium as a chip breaker, eZeebrass produces short, easily manageable chips in machining and processing operations—fully automated and lead-free!

    With a copper content of 58% in the alloy, eZeebrass serves as the foundation for an economical transition to a lead-free world.

    The alloy variant eZeeDZR combines the excellent machinability of eZeebrass with dezincification resistance in accordance with DIN EN ISO 6509.

    It’s eZee!

  • Cuphin – The Versatile Material Family for Installation Applications

    The Cuphin material family has been an outstanding solution for a wide range of installation applications for years. Different Cuphin variants offer application-specific property profiles.

  • Well-known but Lead-free – CuZn42 and CuZn38As

    The portfolio is completed by the standardized material CuZn42 (CW510L-DW), available in both a lead-free and a low-lead version. As a dezincification-resistant material in this product family, we offer CuZn38As (CW511L-DW). However, the machinability of these alloys cannot be compared to eZeebrass and Cuphin.
