FAQ – Brass Caps for Bangladeshi Buyers

Q1: What are these brass caps used for?

A1: Brass caps cover exposed screw ends, bolt threads, or pipe openings to protect users and improve appearance. In lighting, they secure lamp holders; in furniture, they hide fasteners for a clean finish. They are also used in plumbing and automotive trim. Our caps are deep‑drawn, meaning they have no internal thread – they are designed for slip‑fit or snap‑fit over smooth posts or screws with external threads.

Q2: What is the MOQ and can I get samples?

A2: Our standard MOQ for brass caps is 50,000 pieces per size. For first‑time buyers, we accept trial orders from 5,000 pieces. Free samples from stock are available – you pay only express shipping (DHL/FedEx to Bangladesh, approx. US$50–US$90). Each sample pack includes 20–50 pieces, a material certificate, and a dimensional report. For custom sizes, a one‑time tooling fee (US$300–US$600) applies, refundable against an order of 100,000+ pieces.

Q3: How do you ensure quality for a 500,000‑piece batch?

A3: Quality control is the same for all orders. Incoming C26800 coil is verified via mill certificate. During production, operators check dimensions every 30 minutes. After forming, 100% of parts undergo visual inspection for surface defects. We randomly select 20 pieces per 5,000 for destructive testing – wall thickness, hardness, and salt spray. All records are kept and shared. For this shipment, the buyer received a pre‑shipment video showing the entire inspection process.

Q4: Why choose deep‑drawn brass caps over stamped or machined ones?

A4: Deep drawing produces seamless, one‑piece caps with consistent wall thickness and a smooth internal bore – ideal for slip‑fit applications where threading is not required. It is more cost‑effective than machining for large volumes and offers better material utilization than stamping from sheet. Our deep‑drawn brass caps are burr‑free and ready for immediate use without secondary finishing.
