The 12 inch waterjet flat cut brass uses Alloy C46400 Naval Brass that is a superior metal for signage because of its strength and hardness. The bronze comes in a flat sheet and is placed on a table where a computer driven waterjet cuts each letter to precision. Waterjet cut letters are made using a fine, high pressure stream of water that carries an abrasive mineral. This fine stream cuts and allows for sharp (.020 radius) inside corners and intricate detail on small letters and characters. Once your letter has been cut, it is prepared for finishing. The cut metal characters are turned over, drilled and tapped at the appropriate diameter for its stud mounting hardware used during your installation. In the finishing process, the letter is bead-blasted to make it precise and smooth then stroke sanded to give it a natural satin finish. The letters are set up on a rack where it is coated with a two-part hardened acrylic polyurethane clear-coat, then sent to an oven for baking. Your letters are then laid out for careful quality inspection then seal-tight packaged so your letters arrive mistake-free. These characters come with a lifetime warrantee against fading, cracking, pitting or chipping. Our guarantee states we will replace your letter for free.
