Common Faucet Materials On The Market

    As one of the more common sanitary ware in life, the faucet plays a very important role in people's daily life. Nowadays, there are various types and styles of faucets on the market, which makes the price of faucets vary greatly. The price of well-known brand faucets on the market will be much higher than that of ordinary faucets, causing a lot of trouble for everyone to choose.

    The plastic faucet has the characteristics of corrosion resistance, non-toxicity, tastelessness,  lightweight， and high-pressure resistance. This green and environmentally friendly product will be a trend in the faucet industry and should be vigorously promoted.

    Brass faucets are gravity-cast with steel molds, and the wall thickness is uniform. This faucet is rust-free, durable, and anti-oxidative. Copper ions have a certain bactericidal effect and prevent bacteria from producing antibodies, so the inner wall of copper faucets will not breed bacteria, which is incomparable with other materials. Most faucets today are made of H59 copper, which is brass with a copper content of 57 to 61 percent.

    Stainless steel faucets do not contain lead and are internationally recognized as healthy materials. Therefore, kitchen and bathroom products made of stainless steel have gradually become popular in European and American countries, but the price of real 304 stainless steel faucets will be higher than that of copper materials.

    Zinc alloy faucets are less expensive than stainless steel and copper faucets. The biggest disadvantage of zinc alloy faucet is that it has no toughness, is prone to cracks after long-term use, and has a short service life.
