Comparison by product mix

Brass and stainless steel often compete with each other in the field of plumbing fixtures and piping. Brass pipes, meanwhile, come in one piece and have no seams. Stainless steel pipes can be welded. Thus, for the same working pressures, the strength of the welded joint is often less. Familiar to many towel dryers of foreign firms are also often made of brass pipes, and the cost of their production is quite comparable with the stainless ones.

Corrosion resistance

If you compare the parameters of corrosion resistance, copper alloys and brass in particular are far superior to steel alloys. Supplier Evek GmbH offers to buy brass rolling of domestic and foreign production at reasonable price in wide assortment. We provide delivery of products anywhere in the continent. The price is optimal.

Brass and stainless steel operating conditions: a comparative analysis

Conventional rolled brass is characterized by long-term performance under the following conditions:

• The working environment in contact with brass products is fresh water, the temperature of which does not matter;
• Absence of chemically aggressive vapors in the environment;
• No concentrated acid solutions - acetic, orthophosphoric or sulphuric, provided there is no dissolved oxygen or air.

If any of the above conditions are not met, it is advisable to replace brass with stainless steel. Brass is alloyed with additional chemical elements to extend its optimum applications:

• Tin, if brass products will come into contact with seawater;
• Lead, iron, aluminum - if the material will be subjected to foundry processing in the future;
• Nickel, if the brass part is to be subjected to complex forming by deformation.

Stainless steel shows its advantages over brass when operating temperatures exceed 450 ... 500 ° C, and in the ambient air there are vapors of chemically aggressive gases that provoke corrosion. Important is the financial factor: the cost of brass products is relatively higher than that of stainless steel products.
