Cu35Zn is a metal with a copper matrix that has the properties of forgings and has good corrosion resistance. Cu35Zn is commonly known as brass metal. Brass is widely used by industry to make various metal components. Brass for engine components must be able to withstand statistical and dynamic loads. One of these components is a ship propeller made of brass. These components must be able to withstand axial loads and have high corrosion resistance. To improve physical and mechanical properties, surface treatment needs to be done with the shot peening method. Shot peening is done with steel shot ball with a diameter of 0.5 mm with a hardness of 40-50 HRC. Shooting distance between nozzles and 100 mm specimens for 4, 6 and 8 minutes. The shot peening pressure varies 7, 8 and 9 bars. Corrosion tests according to the ASTM G5-94 standard are carried out in a 3.5% NaCl solution, instead of seawater. The results showed an increase in the best corrosion resistance of 0.028 mpy at 8 Bar shot pressure, which is 2.8 times compared to raw materials.
