Compare the Brass and Bronze:
Brass:
- Brass is softer than the Bronze.
- Brass is used to making Bearings, bushes etc.. and they are used for pump linings, hydraulic types of equipment.
- In Brass they are subjected to season cracking.
- This has good Surface finish characteristics.
- Brass is a non-corrosive and it has the high tensile strength and higher ductility.
- Machinability of Brass is improved by adding of lead percentage.
- There are different types of Brass: Aluminium Brass, Commercial Brass, Admiralty Brass.
- Brass has a high amount of zinc up to 43%, it is a copper based alloy.
- Brass finishing has light shiny.
Bronze:
- Bronze is harder than Brass.
- Bronze is used for making bearings, sheets, utensils..etc. and used for pump linings.
- In Bronze it does not form season cracking.
- This has better corrosion resistance than Brass.
- It has high strength, toughness and the coefficient of friction are low.
- Wear resistance, ductility increases by adding phosphorus.
- There are different types of Bronzes: Silicon Bronze, Phosphor Bronze, Gunmetal etc..
- It is copper based alloy it contains tin up to 10% and zinc is the other element.
- Bronze has the high finish.
