Subject: Tolerances for brass extrusions?

Would anyone out there happen to know typical production tolerances for
brass extrusions?  This would be for an extrusion with a cross section
measuring 1.5" x 0.5" overall, minimum material thickness of .085",
maximum thickness mostly below .100" but approaching .200" in one area.
There are no isolated voids.

(No, I am not planning on producing extrusions in my basement.  I just
want to know if I'm in the right ballpark before contacting
manufacturers.)

Bob -

While there may well be some folks following this newsgroup that can
help, I would suggest posting the same question to the newsgroup
sci.engr.manufacturing as well.
