4 pcs 1/4" x 1/4" C360 Brass Square BAR 12" Long Solid 0.23" Flat Mill Stock

These bars had nicely eased edges, perfect symmetry (no bulges anywhere along the length). It made routing channels to inlay the brass into church prayer altars possible to produce perfect inset of the brass pieces cut to length. Whatever they were coated with was compatible with spray lacquer that I applied to control tarnish. So, I assume they were factory coated with lacquer.Having said that, they were not factory polished to the same degree as, say, granite finishers wet grind/polish granite slabs used for kitchen counters: meaning fine-ground to flatten the surfaces to a mirror finish. These bars had minute (mi-nute meaning very tiny) ridges across the width, but too small to see at 3 ft viewing distance and with 2 more coats of lacquer. So, perfect for my use.

Its brass square rod of a certain size. No complaints.

These bars were perfect for an inlaid detail in a wooden floor repair: consistent dimensions and easy to cut.

priced right should work fine for me

I watched a U-Tube video on using brass bars for aligning routers and saws, so I ordered a set. They arrived quickly and appeared to be a quality product. I measured them with my micrometer, and sure enough they are EXACTLY 1/4 by 1/4 inch. Nice to have these and plan many uses.

I needed some stiffeners for a keyboard project and this is perfect. Easy to drill and tap.

Exactly what I expected.

Not what I expected. Poor brass quality. Will return.
