Brass is good for all forms of
plumbing, but is particularly suitable for distribution lines for hot water.
This is because hot water tends to rust steel faster than happens with cold
water. Additionally, hot-water lines made of brass do not lead to water discolouration
as happens with steel pipes. Naturally, this makes brass tubes to lasts longer
and healthier.
Brass is highly resistant to corrosion and has very high
machinability. It can be brazed, easily soldered and is not heat-treatable.
Brass expands more compared to wrought-iron or steel and therefore requires
more clearance, especially if used for the commercial supply of hot-water like
in a hotel. However, in private homes, this may not be very important as
expansion will be minimal and unlikely to cause difficulties.
Brass Square Tube Uses
Brass square tubes are also widely
utilized in both structural and architectural purposes. It is commonly used for
pinions, gears, and lock components. Because it can be made into quality
architectural tubing and solid railing, it is suitable for use in both
residential and commercial applications.
Usual places where brass tubes are
employed include hotels, restaurants, residences, and commercial buildings. It
is extensively used in plumbing, central heating, electrical equipment,
desalination fields, and seawater lines. Being of moderately high strength,
brass tubing can also be used for tapping and drilling operations.
Supreme Durability
When pitted
against lots of similar structures or metal parts, brass square tubing provides
exceptional strength and high durability. It holds up pretty well in corrosive
or high-temperature environments. Because it doesn’t rust easily and is
relatively resistant to acid corrosion, it is ideal for applications which
could possibly undermine the integrity of other metals.
