Merit Brass Announces an Upcoming Price Increase for March, 2026

March 9, 2026

TO OUR VALUED CUSTOMERS,

We would like to express our sincere gratitude for your continued trust and support of Merit Brass. Your business is truly valued, and we are thankful for the confidence you place in us.

While we remain focused on internal improvements and enhancing our customers’ Merit Experience - for everything within our sphere of control - manufacturing and raw materials costs have increased significantly. As a result, we will be implementing price adjustments on the lines detailed below.

These price adjustments take effect with new orders placed on March 23, 2026. Please note, these are list price changes only, and your existing discount multipliers will remain the same. Orders placed by the end of the day on March 20, 2026 will be honored at current pricing. We reserve the right to limit quantities based on historical purchases and availability.

Please contact your Merit Brass Sales Representative if you have questions regarding specific orders or require other assistance.
