Advantages Of Using Brass Electric Accessories

INFORMATION

• Brass is one of the alloys of copper and zinc
  that is used in different casting shapes made by
  using closed die presses when heated up to 900
  F.
• As forged material offers more tensile strength,
  manufacturers widely use this material to cast
  brass electrical accessories.
• Depending on the composition of the brass alloys,
  the exact properties of different brasses vary.
• Mainly, the properties depend on the copper-zinc
  ratio. All brasses, in general, are, however,
  known for their machinability or for the ease
  with which the metal can be transformed into
  specific forms and shapes while not losing its
  strength.
• Brass electric accessories are heavily used
  across various industries.
• All brasses are, irrespective of the copper-zinc
  ratio, considered to be ductile and malleable.
• Brass can also be cast relatively cast owing to
  its low melting point.

• For casting applications, though, a high zinc
  content is generally expected. Brasses that
  contain low zinc content are easily welded,
  brazed, and cold worked.
• Moreover, a high copper content enables the metal
  to form a patina on its surface, as a mean to
  guard the surface against corrosion.
• This comes very handy in the applications that
  expose the metal to weathering and moisture.
• Brass has both good electrical and heat
  conductivity (its electrical conductivity ranges
  from 23 to 44 that of pure copper), and it is
  spark and wear resistant.
• There are more than enough reason why brass
  electric accessories are extensively used in a
  variety of applications across all the
  industries.
• Moreover, its bacteriostatic properties, like
  copper, have resulted in its use in healthcare
  facilities and bathroom fixtures.

What are its uses and applications?

• Brass is widely used in several types of
  applications.
• Manufacturers use it to craft- bathroom
  accessories, like doorknobs, piping, locks, and
  gears electronic, automotive, and electrical
  parts musical instruments, like bells, cymbals,
  horns, harmonicas, and saxophones plumbing
  heating, ventilation, and air conditioning
  building hardware solenoid, valves, and
  hydraulic fittings seawater piping medical
  appliances and marine hardware, condenser plates
  and pump shafts.

But why does manufacturing units use brass?

• As the alloy holds several benefits, crafting
  various applications with it is a good idea.
• Brass has greater strength as it has closer
  grains and zero virtual porosity.
• A highly tensile material with a denser grain
  structure can be made by subjecting the alloy
  under extreme temperature and pressure creates.
• As brass has a denser grain structure, parts that
  are made from brass are leak-free.
• Moreover, one can easily weld and shape brass
  components. Significant saving of material and
  money is another advantage for the manufacturers
  as brass doesnt have porosity.

• Brass components do not need sanding or grinding
  and gives supreme finishing. Furthermore, the
  result of superior surface finish is a minimum
  requirement of tooling.
• Manufacturers are using brass material to
  craft brass electric accessories for all these
  reasons.
• Benefits of brass are real and thus manufacturers
  use it for countless applications.
