Custom Brass Parts Manufacturer | Drawing to Production
Custom brass parts manufactured to your drawings and specifications. Prototype to mass production runs. Drawing review, DFM feedback, and RFQ response within one business day. ISO 9001:2015. Jamnagar, India.
Pixon Metals manufactures custom brass parts against buyer-supplied drawings, samples, or specifications. There is no catalogue. Every component we produce is made specifically for the customer's application — whether that is a one-off prototype, a development batch, or a recurring production order.
Our manufacturing base in Jamnagar, Gujarat gives us access to a wide range of brass alloys, sub-processes, and finishing options. We work across a broad range of component types — from small precision turned connectors to custom flat copper busbars and injection moulding inserts.
What We Mean by Custom Brass Parts
Custom manufacturing means that the part does not exist in a standard catalogue and is made only when a buyer requests it. This applies to:
- Non-standard thread combinations (e.g., BSP one end, NPT the other)
- Special geometry — hex forms, multi-step profiles, combined turning and milling
- Custom lengths or hole pitches on earthing links and busbars
- Modified standard parts — e.g., a standard moulding insert with a custom flange
- Sample-matched parts where the buyer provides a physical part to replicate
- Low-volume parts not carried by standard distributors
From Drawing to Delivery: Our Process
- Drawing or sample submission — Send PDF, DXF, STEP, or a physical sample
- Technical review — We check machinability, thread feasibility, and dimensional clarity; flag any DFM concerns
- Quotation — Price, lead time, and MOQ confirmed within one working day for most components
- Order confirmation — Buyer approves quotation; production scheduled
- First article (if required) — Dimensional inspection report on the first produced part before full run
- Production and inspection — All components checked against drawing before dispatch
- Dispatch — Packed, labelled, and shipped with packing list and any required certificates

What to Include When Submitting a Drawing
The more complete your drawing, the faster and more accurately we can quote. Useful information includes:
- All dimensions with tolerances (critical dimensions starred or noted)
- Material callout: alloy grade, standard (e.g., IS 319, CW614N)
- Thread type and class (e.g., M10×1.5 – 6g, ½" BSPT)
- Surface finish requirement (e.g., nickel plated, 8–12 μm)
- Required quantity and any repeat order frequency
- Applicable standards or end-use (helps us confirm material and process suitability)
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you require a minimum order quantity for custom brass parts?
MOQ depends on the component. For simple turned parts, we can supply small quantities. For parts requiring dedicated tooling or fixtures, a minimum run that amortises the tooling cost is usually required. MOQ will be stated in the quotation.
Can I send a sample instead of a drawing?
Yes. We can work from a physical sample by dimensionally inspecting it and creating an internal reference. This is a practical approach for reverse engineering or replacing a component where no drawing exists. Note that any critical tolerances that are not visible from the sample should be communicated separately.
How long does it take to get a prototype?
For simple turned components without special tooling, prototypes can typically be produced within 1–2 weeks from drawing approval. Components requiring special tooling, moulding inserts, or multi-step processes may take 3–4 weeks for the first samples.
Can you reverse engineer an existing part?
Yes. Provide the physical part, any known dimensions, material information, and the end-use context. We will inspect the part and produce a working drawing and quotation. We recommend the buyer reviews and approves our interpretation before production.
