Brass and white copper use difference

Dec 10, 2022

The difference between brass and white copper:

1. Different components. Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. If brass consists only of copper and zinc, it is called ordinary brass. If it is composed of more than two elements of multiple alloys is called special brass. White copper is a copper-based alloy with nickel as the main element.

2. Different physical properties. Special brass has high strength, high hardness and strong chemical corrosion resistance. The mechanical properties of machining are also prominent. The mechanical properties of machining are also prominent. White copper is silver white, metallic luster, so named white copper. Compared with other copper alloys, white copper has excellent mechanical and physical properties, good ductility, high hardness, beautiful color, corrosion resistance and deep drawing properties.

3. Different use occasions (different uses). Brass seamless pipe can be used in heat exchangers and condensers, cryogenic lines, submarine transport lines. Manufacturing sheet, bar, bar, pipe, casting parts, etc. Widely used in shipbuilding, petrochemical, electrical appliances, instruments, medical equipment, daily necessities, crafts and other fields. Also important resistance and thermocouple alloy.
