Composition of brass pipe

Brass pipes are made of an alloy that is primarily composed of copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn), with the exact composition varying depending on the specific type of brass.

The most common type of brass used for pipes is called "red brass," which contains approximately 85% copper and 15% zinc. Red brass is also known as "low zinc brass" and is commonly used for water supply systems due to its resistance to corrosion and ability to withstand high temperatures.

Other types of brass used for pipes include "yellow brass" and "lead-free brass." Yellow brass contains approximately 60-70% copper, 30-40% zinc, and small amounts of lead and other elements, and is often used for low-pressure applications such as drainage and waste systems. Lead-free brass, as the name suggests, does not contain lead and is often used in potable water supply systems.

Brass pipes may also be coated with a thin layer of tin or other materials to enhance their durability and resistance to corrosion.

Overall, brass pipes are made of high-quality brass alloys that are designed to withstand the rigors of plumbing applications while providing excellent thermal conductivity, corrosion resistance, and ease of installation.
