Based in the heart of Addis Ababa, Tariku Metals has built a reputation for reliability and quality as a leading manufacturer and supplier. We understand that the strength of your project depends on the integrity of your materials, which is why our brass rods are produced with meticulous attention to detail. We are committed to supporting Ethiopia’s growing industries by providing a consistent, high-grade product that forms the essential backbone for countless applications, from intricate artisan work to robust industrial machinery.
Our brass rods are known for their excellent combination of strength and workability. The specific composition, typically a balanced copper-zinc alloy, is engineered to offer superior corrosion resistance, making it a durable choice for various environments. This material is not only strong but also highly malleable, allowing it to be easily machined, threaded, or shaped to meet precise specifications without sacrificing its inherent toughness. It’s a versatile material that performs reliably under pressure.

Yes, brass rods are highly suitable for machining due to their excellent machinability. They offer smooth cutting, good strength, and corrosion resistance, making them ideal for various mechanical applications.
Yes, brass rods can be welded, but it requires proper technique and equipment. Due to their high copper content, brass can be prone to oxidation and cracking during welding.
The hardness of brass rods typically ranges between 60-100 HRB (Rockwell B scale), depending on the specific alloy and temper, with harder grades reaching up to 150 HB (Brinell hardness).
You’ll find the versatility of our brass rods at work across a wide spectrum of projects. Machinists and artisans value them for creating precision components like gears, fittings, and decorative hardware, thanks to their smooth finish and easy workability. In plumbing and electrical systems, they are the go-to material for durable valves, connectors, and conductive parts. Essentially, wherever a combination of strength, corrosion resistance, and a classic aesthetic is needed, our brass rod provides a trusted and effective solution.
