Bronze & Brass Scrap

Bronze and Brass are copper alloys, which means that they primarily contain copper with various other metals, such as zinc, tin, and lead to form a new metal in the form of bronze or brass.

Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc, brass is yellow in color and often used as a substitute of gold. The metal has found uses in low pressure plumbing fittings.

Bronze is very similar to brass except that it has a more coppery color than the yellow color of brass. Being an alloy of copper and tin, bronze is harder than brass.
