Brass is an alloy material, mainly composed of copper and zinc, with good workability, electrical conductivity and thermal conductivity. Brass is usually a golden color and is widely used in the manufacture of electrical equipment, pipes, ornaments and Musical Instruments. Its corrosion resistance and oxidation resistance make it ideal for a variety of application scenarios.
Properties of brass /copper
● Excellent machinability: Brass is known for its excellent machinability, which makes it easy to work and allows for the creation of complex designs.
● Corrosion resistance: Brass has good corrosion resistance, can withstand contact with water, suitable for use in the Marine environment.
● Durable: Brass is a highly durable material that can withstand high-stress environments and harsh conditions.
● Aesthetic: Brass has a unique color and aesthetics, making it a popular choice for decorative parts.

● Corrosion resistance: Brass has good corrosion resistance, can withstand contact with water, suitable for use in the Marine environment.
Disadvantages of brass /copper
●Limited strength: Brass is less strong than other metals such as steel, which means it may not be suitable for high-stress applications.
●High cost: Brass can be more expensive than some materials, such as aluminum or plastic, which can make it less cost-effective for some applications.
Finishes | Description | |
![]() | Electroplating | The nickel or chrome layer is deposited on the brass/copper surface by electrochemical method to improve its corrosion resistance and appearance texture. |
![]() | Polishing | The brass/copper surface is polished by mechanical or chemical methods to make its surface smooth and bright and increase gloss. |
![]() | Sandblasting | Use high pressure air or mechanical equipment to spray sand on the brass/copper surface to remove dirt, oxidation layer or increase surface roughness. |
![]() | Oxidation | By controlling the contact time and conditions between brass and oxygen, an oxide film is formed on its surface to change its color and appearance. |
![]() | Anodizing | The brass/copper is placed in an acidic or alkaline electrolyte, and an oxide film is formed through electrolysis to change the surface properties and color. |
