K&S rectangular brass tube is a precision metal stock component designed for hobby, craft, model making, and light fabrication projects. This 12-inch length of solid brass tubing features a compact 5/32″ × 5/16″ rectangular cross-section, making it ideal for applications where space is limited or exact dimensions are critical. Brass naturally resists rust and oxidation, ensuring long-lasting performance indoors and outdoors, while its soft yet strong composition allows for straightforward cutting, filing, bending, and soldering without specialized equipment.
Whether you’re building structural supports for scale models, creating decorative accents, fabricating custom electrical conduits, assembling plumbing components, or prototyping mechanical assemblies, this brass tube delivers the precision and reliability professionals and hobbyists expect. The uniform polished finish maintains a professional appearance, and the material’s superior electrical and thermal conductivity make it suitable for low-voltage circuits and heat-resistant applications.
